[Healeys] Cockpit Insulating revisited

[joe mulqueen]

Lowes and HD does have some self adhering tar like
material available in all areas.  Used for "flashing"
when installing new windows and doors.  The adhesive
is very tenacious.  The only issue is that it's only
avail in rolls approx 6" wide and not very thick.   
The material I got from HD is .025 thk.

I've heard, but haven't tried, that the ice dam
barrier (used in snow
country to prevent water from backing up under
shingles when ice forms
at the eaves) makes a nice, cheap substitute for the
Dynamat.
