RE: Wow! What a difference ... (Sound Deadening)

thanks again for this guide. I think I am going to begin this next month.

So just to clarify, if you were to do this again, how would you change the parts list in the Original Post

Quote:

Second Skin Audio's Damplifier 80 sq ft - $187.20 (30 lbs) - Used to add mass to metal, and absorbs unwanted vibrations; the foil layer reflects unwanted sound
OverKill 36 sq ft - $43.13 (.468 lbs) - This is used to scatter the remaining vibrations that manages to pass through the Damplifier layer
Luxury Liner 36 sq ft $99.98 (I used ~27 sq ft = 27 lbs) - Used to absorb the last remaining vibrations that pass through the OverKill layer
Spray Adhesive 2 cans $23.94 - Used to attach Overkill & Luxury Liner
Panel Popper - $9.34 - Used to pull out pin-type retainers and trim
Wooden Hand Roller - $8.97 - Used to flatten Damplifier (saves your hands from cuts!)
Rags & Denatured Alcoh. $2.00 - Used to clean metal

ThaiCobra : If I had the chance to do it over again, I guess I would use more Damplifier and less OverKill & Luxury Liner ... other than that, I'm pretty happy with the results.

Let's see if I can post some pix now ...
