Yeah, it has the self adhesive on it though. With foil down, you'll have that paper up and if it tears, you might have a gooey mess. Maybe sticking it to another piece of thin rubber would work? It would just be nice to power wash it and not have to take the mat out.

 

[rocmar]

Yeah, that's the only draw back. If you power wash, that thing gets wet and has to be taken out. You can let it set for a week and it still won't dry on its own. Is the bubble wrap stuff as effective at noise and heat reduction as the fabric type?

Don't take...much to remove. ..

Ok, I'm gonna take @Alan 's Idea a couple of steps further and modify the blanket to repel moisture as well as dirt, heat and noise. By cutting both the dampening material to fit as well as the Reflectix/reflecting bubble wrap. both will be identical in length and width plus both will have matching holes for where the roll cage, seat belts and seat attaches. I'll tape all the edges around the circumference as well as tape all the edges within all the matching holes. In theory, this should give it the full spectrum of protection. So, which side should face down, the reflectix, or the gray poly backing of the blanket material?
I wish the blanket material was thicker but this is what I already had on hand. The Aluminum backed Gutter Flashing will be my tape.
PS I made sure to include some feet pictures for all of you foot fetish freaks out there...You know who you are....

The way I wash off all the mud is when I'm coming back into town I stop by the self spray car wash. Soap, rinse, decent pressure for about $3 or $4, and all the mud goes into their drains instead of my driveway. Washes the trailer off too. I try to make quick of it due to some may frown on the mud. Then I just fine tune the clean at home, that's when the mat is soaked. The carpet mat works for now and not a big deal to let it hang and dry, just thinking there might be a better alternative.

That's coming from someone that doesn't use their's for plowing, which requires forward and reverse repeatedly. That lever was total pita and I've never regretted disabling that thing.

Which..you will see..dirt..
dust...debris..

[rocmar]

Seats...top & bottom..are made

How do you reverse if you disabled it?

No I haven't but have been looking at options for mine.

I'm kinda liking that idea. I currently use a piece of 12" x 12" x 1/8" piece of rubber over the seat belt location. Something 1/16" or maybe thinner will give it more durability. The rubber will add even more sound deadening to it, as well.

And won't hold water.

Yea, I'm onboard with that!

I'm still looking, but found nitrile rubber 3' x 4' x 1/16" for $30 + $11 shipping.
