^^^It works. Not sure how it compares with dynamat, but the difference in my car was really outstanding.
Did the asphalt smell go away?

5 rolls? You may have gone a little overboard in my opinion. The most effective places to put it would be the back side of any outer panels and large flat areas. Usually only 20% coverage is needed. This is speaking from experience too. The bigger gains come from gluing closed cell acoustic foam over the top of any deadener youve used if this is for a sound system. I went with some deadener from second skin audio with their 1/8" foam over the top in my BMW and lost interest in upgrading the speakers after that point since it made that much of a difference. If you wanna go the cheap route like I did in my DSM, glue carpet padding over the top of any areas you can for a similar effect. Just make sure moisture isnt going to leak into the car or you will end up with mold.

To answer: No asphalt smell at all. I used only 3 rolls so i didnt get too crazy with it.
So is it tar adhesive? Have you tried to remove it? Lol
