[QUOTE="mastershake575, post: 8785748, member: 665251"] Hushmat is actually OEM USA grade materials. Runs about $4 to $5 per square foot which is right in line with Dynamat and second skin. Noico and Siless are the budget variants for the company STP (standartplast). They also have some sort of connection with Killmat. Fatmat is lower-end but not owned by that company. I post in DIYMA all the time and Chris's results are incredible. You'd have better results using 30-40% of a real deadener then a knockoff in terms of weight, time, and results. Those brands use cheap fillers even if they advertise it as "asphalt free" (there's tons of other medicore fillers you can add to keep cost down). You can't use 100% geniuene butyl and then sell it at a profit for $1-1.25 per square foot, that's not actually possible (there's a reason why a handful of companies who all compete with each other sell geniune deadeners for $4-5.5 per square foot, that's what it actually cost to make a real product and make some profit). If it was signficanly cheaper then those handful of companies would actually compete price wise against each other but they don't, it's because they charge the REAL price The problem i've run into ALOT in my area is people will use low-end deadeners and say things like "oh it had a mild smell for a few days but went away, no issues". Of course I get into there car and the car reeks (the smell didn't go away, they just got use to it lol) [/QUOTE]
