David,
I run into the same problem. Silicone is a pain to glue on. After numerous
experiments I prime the Koolmat layer with a glue called PATTEX Extreme and
then on top use contact glue..
My upholstery shop gave me another solution - to sand it with very heavy
sand paper.

We have installed both, and they both seem to work as well as each other.
The problem we have had with the Koolmat is that nothing will stick to it.
What you are going to use as carpet insulation you will have to get some
good glue to install it. If you use the Dynatmat material you can use their
Dynaliner which has a peel a stick backing and sticks right in place.

I did some research about 1.5 years ago and I went with Kolmat. It's

I read about it on few other lists and I think I was finally convinced by
someone doing an e-type with it. I also saw it installed in my friend's
e-type and I have to say heat is not a problem there, despite a V12..
I also use felt though.
