Hard to believe that thin coat of Lizard Skin works as good as the thick Dynamat...is it equivalent in heat and sound deadening? Definitely looks more thorough in coverage.
I've never used Dynomat back-to-back with LS, but the LS did dampen the "tin can" sound a good bit, and I imagine once everything is bolted together it will be even more solid sounding. The LS actually builds up fairly thick; around the thickness of three/four credit cards. I imagine it would be better at insulating against heat transfer since it has "micro ceramic air balloons" in it that has air space, where Dynomat just has a thin skin of aluminum over it.
