Alternative to Dynamat?

I saw in this section someone found an alternative to dynamat that you are able to buy at Home Depot. Now I went to Home Depot, and asked for it, and no one knew what I was talking about. So I just get home, and I looked for the other post about it, and now I can't find it. Can someone help me with this, like whats the name of it, product number if possible, other places to get it, price, etc...

If they have it it will be in the roofing supply section.

Found it at lowes for $12 a 25' by 6" roll. The name brand of it is peel and seal.
It was by the roofing tar and patch, it was in a pretty small display type box so look hard, maybe only 12 rolls out there total.

Here is a thread with some pics of it.

Thanks auxout, helped out a lot, i thought it was black in color, but the pics also helped. How much of your car did you do, and does it way it down a lot? Also. how many rolls did it take to do the trunk, because I plan on doing that, inside doors and sail panels, and maybe even the floor since I have new carpet going in. How much would you suggest to do?

The sticky side is black. It's not real heavy, worth the tradeoff I think. In those pics I was up to 2 rolls, I bought 3 more I think that should probably finish it if not I'll be pretty close.

How did the stuff work out

I went to Home Depot to look for it and they had no idea what I was talking about. Went to Lowe's and they took me right to it.

It looks a little thin Curious on how well it works. I was going to but it on the back of my interior panels before they go back in. Will work great for that but curious on how works under the carpet

I doesn't need to be thick.

It deadens the noise by sticking directly onto the metal and muffling vibrations.

No, I didn't get it in my car yet. I am still working on getting it stripped so it can get into the paint shop! If anyone else has done it and has pics, lets see them!
