Design Engineering Floor & Tunnel Shield II 42" x 48" Adhesive Heat and Sound Insulation (14 sq. ft.)

Fantastic product. Easy to form and trim to fit. Without the fiberglass issue like some products. Needed to protect wiring from exhaust heat. Would also work for noise reduction. Made well perfect thickness. very durable. Will be buying again to finish my project. Definitely recommend. Pricey but you get what you pay for.

Excellent heat shields. Use them in the engine compartment of my rv. They REALLY stick once they are pressed on. Well made and VERY good adhesive. Good luck if you want to want to remove it.

Great product. works great. Good price.

While it is a bit pricey, it is a "one and done" application. I have installed this (12x24 inch size) in two Mazda Miatas transmission tunnels. They are known to transmit a lot of heat into the footwell, particularly on the driver's side (for left-hand drive cars). With the extremely sticky adhesive, as long as the tunnel is properly clean, it will be a permanent attachment. A little trimming was done to help it fit where I wanted it. Heat transmission is significantly reduced. I cannot envision any way this could be successfully installed in a Miata with the transmission installed. Do it with your next clutch job!

I will re-edit this when I've put some heat to it and seen the miles it holds up to. As far as the product itself though, initial impressions are very good. I had the engine and transmission out of my miata so I could hopefully do this job the right way. There is a video out there of a gentleman putting one of these in with it installed and I can't imagine it would hold up as well. Reasons are numerous but I think the most important being there's no way you could get the tunnel clean enough for proper adhesion. Yes this product is extremely sticky, but like anything adhesive once you clog that surface up with contaminants it's going to lift off the surface and not provide the kind of bond intended. If you've come here, your car is too hot due to tunnel heat most likely. Though I suppose this product would work for lots of places. The aluminum side of this shield resembles the sort of thing I've seen on lots of new oem shields. It's got a cratered surface, it's somewhat reflective in nature. It is fairly stiff as a result, though it bends fairly easily. My application is for a race car (miata) and I've always found the tunnel gets just too hot from exhaust especially during the summer months (I usually don't have carpet either). So hopefully this helps this season. I've attached an image that shows how mine went in. I made sure to thoroughly clean the surface before-hand and started with the driver's side. Working it down and peeling back the adhesive protection layer of the product I was able to get it to finally adhere the way I wanted. Note, I cut my product with tin snips at the folds of the body to help ensure I didn't have any bubbles in where it applied. I don't believe there is any real way to not do this at least on a miata's tunnel. We'll see how well it works but I'm real hopeful it solves or at least helps to mitigate the heat issue. Hoping cutting it the way I did doesn't somehow ruin it's overall effectiveness or make it less long-lived. Will update with how it holds up. [...]

I am using this product to protect nylon motorcycle bags sitting in contact with an exposed motorcycle exhaust, so I needed something that could handle direct contact, not just reflected heat. This shield is meeting my needs. The adhesive backing of the shield seems to be adhering well to the neoprene pad on the bag. In testing, the exhaust becomes far too hot to touch, while the neoprene pad and the bag itself become only slightly warm, so I'm confident there will be no meltdown during my upcoming road trip. The sturdy shield material can be cut to size with a heavy-duty pair of scissors, and is flexible enough to shape without distorting at freeway speeds. I would recommend taping the cut edges of the heat shield with aluminum exhaust tape for a little more finished look and keep water from getting into the insulation.

Exceptional product. I chose the 2x the cost version with the adhesive already applied and I HIGHLY recommend you do the same. I used 4 different DEI products on the heat/sound insulation modification project on my 2019 Thor Freedom Elite. Thing was loud & hot. I did the entire floor in this product. Wish I had also used it for the dog house. Moldable (to a point) but still quite thick and stiff at 10 mil aluminum facing. Worked exceptionally well for cooling down the cab.

It's great at doing its job: it's a good insulator and heat reflector. The adhesive is very aggressive, which is great.

Proper aluminum hear wrapping with asbestos lining and glue surface. Highly recommend it.

Good quality. Easy to use. Can mold into intricate shapes to heat shield my ecu and battery.

Very good quality good stuff

Wery good product. Sticks well and does a great job of deflecting heat.

cut with either a really sharp knife... and good tin snips sort of fits anywhere, seems to stick well. 1/4 of kevlar padding seems perfect !!
