Got some underlay - its green and the rubbery type.
Which side up do I put it - read conflicting reports on the net - I am guessing flat side up?
Cheers!

That's right.
Any green rubbery type I have had had "This side up" printed all over it to avoid any confusion.
Assumes ability to read!
I'd of thought the rubber side up due to... if it was rubber side down the rubber would start breaking up under traffic use, considering she has uneven floorboards.

I would have said flat side up, incase you can feel the rubber through the carpet...
Mine has always been professionally fitted - green side down - onto paper.

I would have said rubber side up, and am sure that whenever I have removed carpets this is what I have found.
Can you tell what make it is and ask the manufacturers, or they may have some advice on a web site.
