If you're lucky, the previous owner did a poor application job and the dynamat is only lightly stuck on there. Give it a good tug and it should just "pop" off cleanly. If it's applied GOOD, then you're done for. you can pour googone on it, and it'll melt it, leaving a sticky messy black mess.

Good luck! you can do it with paitence and a big tub of elbow grease.
Why was applying Dynamat such a mistake? Was it ineffective?

I'd try 3M Adhesive Cleaner in a small area to see if it works. It works wonders on many glue-like materials.

I personally didn't see as much benefit as I had hoped to. And before I could change my mind, I was committed.

blugh....

I would like to add some additional sound proofing to the car but don't want to waste money on something that isn't going to work.
