    Replacing my headliner, and the insulation is not reusable. What does everyone use? Looking for cheap too.

    Dynaliner would be better. It's lighter.

    I have also seen some reflective bubblie stuff at the Home Depot. But that stuff may not help absorb noise very well.

    Do you guys using the peel and seal have a rough idea on how much that amount of material weighs? Less than 3-4 lbs?

    I posted the weight a few years ago. I think it was 4 lbs a roll or close to it. One roll does 96.7% of the roof...or a 2" strip to finish if you lay the P&S door to door.

    edit: 4.5 lbs. a roll

    I checked up on the peel and seal on other sites, some say the glue will turn loose in the heat. Being in Texas worries me about the heat.
