Default Dynamat wont stick

I tried installing my dynomat kit this weekend and it wouldnt stick to the metal panels because they were too hot. I was doing it outside. has anybody ever heard of this problem? I know if its too cold it wont stick either.

Might also not stick if not properly cleaned. Wait until night time?

yeah if not cleaned right then it wont stick. cant say ive heard of heat being a reason because ive seen heat guns used so you can get a better fit on shapes and curves. now humidty that might be causing it no to stick.

Clean and dry the mounting surface really well. I did my trunk in 90+ weather and it stuck just fine.

heat is not an issue. clean it right, not just soap and water, nor would i use a degreaser or any thing out of a can. You need mineral spirts you can find it at walmart. clean the area with that and it will stick like no other.
