Herculined Interior
Ok I am still thinking about doing this, especially since my carpet stinks again from the winter slush. I was just wondering if anyone has done this yet, and what they did about the rubber-ish insulating layer stuck to the sheet metal.

Well, i'm gonna herculine my fenders, rockers, etc. But I need to find a good (cheap) supplier. May I tag along on this thread?

I just did my grille and front bumper yesterday. Checker Auto had a 32 oz can for $29. They also had a sale on the gallon (with needed application supplies) for $79 -$20 mail in rebate.
I am very happy with the results. The stuff is toxic though. Be sure to buy a good organic vapor respirator and wear gloves. It clumps quickly too, so be sure to keep moving and stirring.
My wife came home, looked at my 4R and said, "That looks great!" Normally she wouldn't comment. I will post pics when I get everything back together.
So far, from me.
PS: I still have 16 oz left after two coats.

You could try to Herc the sound mat, but I don't think the Herc will bond very well.

How is the sound damping qualities of this stuff? I'm wondering about removing the carpet, covering the inside of the floor, giving the carpet a good bath and then re-installing the carpet. What do you guys think?

Your best bet would be to scuff up the painted surface, hand-sand the edges, and wipe with Acetone. Then Herc it.
