Here is a website for the manufacturer of Dinoflex. They make a product
called dinomat and I am sure it is not the same thing referred to before.
That stuff is a thick tacky rubbery mat that self adheres to the inside of
body panels. This stuff would need to be bonded with a special adhesive. I
have seen dinoflex sold in Canadian Tire in 1/4" thickness. Check it out!
