I made a list of about a dozen truck bed liners, then realized a better sound deadener would be undercoating (softer, less sound bounce and cheaper). My criteria is to use a one-part, not a 2 part chemical, a brush on, not spray can, hopefully with water clean up, not acetone or xylene, and to have a combination of deadening (easy) and soft surface to not reflect any sound (more difficult). Also, since there are many properties that are not needed (uv resistance, good wear properties, etc) there may be other products that will work as well.
I like the idea of weighting the case uniformly. This idea may work better with a Kinesis than most flat boards.
