That treatment reminds me of when I was a teenager and I soundproofed my vw
baja bug.
I just used fiberglass mat and Henry's asphalt roof patch on the interiors
of the doors.
Several layers later you get a build up of fiberglass asphalt material
painted on the interior door surface.
The treatment works great and its totally waterproof from moisture.

If you ever need to remove these kinds of treatments for body work or
whatever you will be regretting doing this "permanent" type of treatment.
A simpler bubble foil or carpet you can easily rip out if needed has more
advantage to me.
