Hi Yousef,
I have been selling Second Skin Sound Deadener for 6 years. 100%
Butyl with amazing adhesive.
You don't want any with Asphalt!! It will release at 140 degrees!!
If it comes in a roll don't by it . Rolled product is designed for
roofing
Sorry I don't think Second Skin is distributed in Dubai.
