Default sound deadener brands and average cost and sqft

can a sticky or faq be made on sound deadening?
I had researched this last year but never did it, and i forgot who sells what and what's good.
i was just on second skin's website, they whack you 9.1% sales tax plus a pretty good shipping cost (i know the stuff is heavy) but for an 80 sqft pack and some spectrum stuff i'm looking at $500-600 wtf.

what is an average cost if i were to put stuff on the door and sail panels and along the floors and trunk? People seem to say around 100 sqft of stuff.

fatmat rattle trap has been mentioned but i also read reviews of it smelling like tar in the heat, and my car interior gets quite hot in the summer.

So are these two separate products? Raamamt the vibration dampner and the ensolite is the closed cell foam sound deadner?

Or are they one product that does both?

anyone have experiance with those two products over time with vehicles that see high interior and exterior heat? Just wondering if they degrade over time due to things like Florida summers with the heat and humidity and no garage to park it in.

not yet for me, but reviews ive read said that this stuff can handle the heat and stick just as good as ever. the only ones ive seen issue wit in heat is dynamat, fat mat, and eDead. They all start to peel and even smell tarry in any decent amount of heat it seems
