This thermal acoustic barrier contains a treated jute material surrounded by two layers of reinforced foil fabric. It’s durable; it reflects radiant heat; and it insulates against both heat and noise transfer. Heat Wave Pro makes an excellent automotive floor insulation, car hood liner, or fits in anywhere else your factory insulation isn't doing the job. Always face the 98% reflective surface towards the heat source with a recommended 2” of air space. Review: Heat Wave Pro 👍 - The Second Skin Heat Wave Pro – Jute.. is awesome. I used it in conjunction with the Second Skin Damplifier Pro sound deadening mats on a vehicles doors. The Jute material is very thick and the reflective material is quality. I love this products 'natural' and anti-itch properties; handling and installation is a breeze. The product is light but also very dense. Also, the how-to and informational videos on Second Skin's website made it very easy to decide which product's to purchase and where/how to install. I decided to tape the raw edges of the jute mat after trimming to size to inhibit any dirt/debris from collecting in the fibres. I used spray adhesive (I had laying around) on the raw edges and then sealed it off with common HVAC tape. Next time around I will be sure to use all Second Skin products because they are definitely quality. Review: Why do you need this ? - You are the type of person respecting your vehicle. Your vehicle though 20 + years old - looks and runs great - you discover during the cold months - mice decided to make your periodically warm engine compartment their home. And while they are there - they rip apart your hood insulation to keep toasty warm. But you do NOT like the way THAT looks. So You buy this and the fasteners which desertcart sells here: Rexka 30pcs Hood Panel Insulation Retainers Clips Hole Size 1/4" Compatible with GM 3078511 3977775 Buick Cadillac Chevrolet GMC Hummer Oldsmobile Pontiac Saturn Honda Escalade Sierra Silverado Then you carefully remove the hood insulation from the hood and place it atop this new piece of insulation - which resembles what you had there - draw the outline and cut to size. Be aware this is so well made and dense - it was an workout to cut - so be careful you do not hurt yourself when you use the cutting tool. By the way - without hood insulation - your hood surface will start to deteriorate. ## Features - HEAT SHIELD AND SOUND ABSORBER: Heat Wave Pro is a thermal acoustic jute sound and heat insulation material sandwiched between two layers of reinforced foil. The foil acts as a radiant barrier while the jute interior enables a high sound absorbing coefficient. - RADIANT BARRIER: With an R-Value per inch about 50% better than the typical insulation found in your home (3.91), Heat Wave Pro is temperature rated to 250 F and reflects 97% of radiant heat. - UNDER HOOD INSULATION: The reinforced foil fabric creates a radiant heat barrier to insulate your car hood from both engine noise and heat. This car hood insulation will help keep your cabin cool and protect your hood’s paint job. - CARPET AND HEADLINER INSULATION: Adding Heat Wave Pro behind your car's upholstery will keep heat out in the summer and in during the winter. - Proudly made in the USA ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | Second Skin | | Coverage | 24 square feet per sheet, with larger sizes available in packages of 3 or 5 sheets | | Item Dimensions L x W | 72"L x 48"W | | Item Thickness | 0.38 inches | | Material | Jute | | Material Type | Jute | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 72"L x 48"W | | Recommended Uses For Product | insulating car hoods, firewalls, and thermal hot spots; replacing automotive carpet padding and car hood liners; and improving sound and thermal insulation in vehicles Recommended Uses For Product insulating car hoods, firewalls, and thermal hot spots; replacing automotive carpet padding and car hood liners; and improving sound and thermal insulation in vehicles See more | ## Product Details - **Material:** Jute - **Brand:** Second Skin - **Coverage:** 24 square feet per sheet, with larger sizes available in packages of 3 or 5 sheets - **Item Thickness:** 0.38 Inches - **Recommended Uses For Product:** (function(f) {var _np=(window.P._namespace("DetailPageProductOverviewTemplatesJava"));if(_np.guardFatal){_np.guardFatal(f)(_np);}else{f(_np);}}(function(P) { P.when('A').execute(function(A){ A.on('a:truncate:po-attribute-truncate-4:updated', function(data) { var isTruncated = !data.truncateInstance.getIfTextFits(); var seeMoreElement = document.getElementById('po-attribute-see-more-id-4'); if(seeMoreElement) { seeMoreElement.style.display = isTruncated ?

Our Heat Wave Pro jute is treated to be mold, mildew, and fire-resistant but still should not be left in standing water. To protect the jute from normal small water occurrences, we recommend installers tape up any seams or edges with high-quality foil tape to preserve the inner jute. **Q: Can this be used under my hood?** A: Yes, Heat Wave Pro is a thermal insulation layer that can be used under the hood or on the firewall. We do recommend you tape up all seams and edges with foil tape. **Q: Need spray adhesive installing between headliner and roof? Is spray adhesive needed in hood? Do you need to use a roller to install?** A: Heat Wave Pro will require either spray adhesive, double sided tape, or dual lock Velcro to be adhered. If you don't buy our spray adhesive or tape, we suggest 3M90 locally. You do not need a roller for the Heat Wave Pro. **Q: Can I use this product behind the cover to my bedroom radiator for noise mitigation and heat efficiency?** A: If there is a 2" air gap from the cover to the heat source it would be safe. Make sure to tape up the sides with foil tape. As far as heat efficiency goes, you would have to provide us with some photographs of your cover and radiator system for us to provide a proper answer to that part of your question. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heat Wave Pro 👍 *by T***Y on March 9, 2026* The Second Skin Heat Wave Pro – Jute.. is awesome.
