Default Sound deadening.

Just some fyi for guys with big trucks or in my case my jeep. I was tired of the road noise and heat being lost so I decided to do some insulating. I have used dynamat before and it is great just very expensive. I did some searching and found a product called "peal and seal" at lowes for 16 bucks per roll. did the whole jeep with it and double layers on floor boards and rear floor. WOW, what a difference. with the hardtop on I always was in an echo chamber, but now it is nice and quiet, road noise is gone, only thing left to do is the doors.

it peels and applys just like dynamat and at a 1/3 the cost..only 144 bucks for 9 rolls.

cool thanks.. I have 2 VW Jetta's with the performance tires and make more road noise than previous VW's. I was thinking of just getting some different tires, but will try this first. Have a great New Year. JJ

Or an Excursion? I was just thinking about doing something like this earlier this week. Thanks for the heads-up.

Is it for automotive use? does the stuff have any temp rating??.....hopefully when the floor of the truck gets really hot with engine/exhaust heat in the summer it doesnt come ungluded and make a huge smell/mess.

Thanks for the heads up. My Ghetto Bentley needs a little less noise inside...

not designated for auto its for roofing, and the smell is the same as with dynamat, barely distinguishable as both are rubber with a small amount of tar-ish substrate with a shiney aluminum backing, i have double the width over top of the area where the exhaust runs and no burning or heat related issues. search it on youtube there are vids of people installing it.
