Talking Re: Project truck dream 65"

Found a great product that is a butyl based insulation/sound deadner,most of this stuff is asphalt based which I didn't want,so away I went with the install.
Best to do this in a warm shop,for moister reasons and workability.Probably went overboard on areas above the floor,but that's something I wont have to question later on.
Not a bad idea to have some extra heat in the cab at the time your doing this,it does help.This material is 60mil thick so when cold,its tough to work with !
I went to the top of the firewall and back up the rear cab wall.I dont know that Ill bother with the kick panels,maybe later
.
Make sure that if you choose to torture yourself by doing this job,meditate for at least one day!!

Make sure your floor etc.is clean,that you get the air bubbles out and seal all joints with metal tape.Use a small roller,upholstery or heavy industrial type scissors,they work well.

Sort of looks like the inside of the space shuttle ? I'm sending my resume to NASA.
