d510addict Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 It's been covered too much I know but hear me out!!! I work for a lovely Tile wholesaler and we carry a line of product for sound deadening floors where tile goes, it is by a company called Laticrete and is called sound and crack adhesive. http://www.laticrete.com/Portals/0/datasheets/lds2040.pdf It is a rubbery type adhesive that lays down with a trowel is light weight and seems like it would be a really really good replacement/ substitute for dynomatt, I also could get it at or near cost which even buying a 5 gal bucket would be cheaper that dynomatt. There is no tar it dries soft but dry and not sticky and feels slightly fibrous no smell once dry and can be applied as thin or thick as you want. What do you guys think of it? Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 how does it do with heat? summer heat is what I am thinking. Quote Link to comment
Z-train Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 It's a mortar.Mortars don't take vibration well.At all actually. Quote Link to comment
d510addict Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Well you can run heating matt in the floors while using this stuff. I'd assume that it can tolerate a decent amount of heat as those heating matts have to push the heat through the tile to degrees upwards of 70 deg's. I'll ask my sister about it she deals with Laticrete a lot. Quote Link to comment
d510addict Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 While it is a motor per-say, It has the texture of those Nike recycled basketball courts like finely shredded rubber. Def not mortor in the traditional sense. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 I use the roll on roofing tar. About 1/4- 3/8 thick, dry to the touch, easy to cut and when warmed with a torch is pliable and will mold into corners. You can even heat and 'weld' edges together. Fuck that expensive dynamat shit. The roll on you can get for free. Roofing companies like to use full lengths without joints so there are always roll ends laying around. You only need a few sq. yds. Quote Link to comment
