When I installed it. it was cold out and I had a kerosene heater running in the garage. I would wave the pieces over the heater for a couple moments before putting it in place. it made it more flexible and stickier.

I think all of these products have adhesive applied to them. And its REALLY sticky stuff too. I have not read anything that does not have an adhesive backing already applied.

Had to remove some on the firewall to patch a rust spot. Stuff sticks on there! Oh, and don't accidentally hit it with a wire wheel. Oye, that makes a mess!

Let's be clear about what the product is.
It is a layer of butyl with a layer of aluminum foil on top that creates a constrained damping layer.
The butyl itself is tacky, sticky, whatever you want to call it. The butyl adheres itself to the sheetmetal. The butyl layer is what converts vibration energy into heat energy that is dissipated within the butyl and the foil layer.
There is no "adhesive" involved.
