Carpeting padding insulation
I took all the old carpet out of my 79. I am doing all the carpet work. I purchased the carpet cut pile loop from CC. What is the heat insulation and padding that can be purchased from Home Depot that works just as well as the hi dollar stuff.

FYI: I used the same product/It is excellent for noise reductionand heat "soak-through".
HOWEVER......In certain areas of the floorboard you may have to reduce the thickness of the felt that is attached to the underside of the new carpet.....you will notice the areas because the new carpet will not want to "lay down" correctly in floorboard "corners and shoulders".
