Cheap sound deadning solution?

I was strolling around walmart and came across this 3M shit that you spray on metal and it puts a rubber coating on it. It said it was great for sound deadning.

I have a problem with my trunk lid ratteling, right now I put some pieces of cardboard in between the gaps where the supports for the trunk lid meets the sheet metal (or whatever, tried to explain it the best I could) to maybe stop a little rattelting.

Was wondering if I sprayed the inside of my trunk lid and a few other things wit dat shit if it will stop most of the ratteling?

I don't know if anything I typed makes since or not, Iam half asleep and cannot think very clearly. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

 
it works a little but not much
Ahhh, I don't need a whole lot, my system is junk. I still can't believe how much them crappy audiobahns rattle everything tho //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif Must just be my Jap car:uhoh:

 
heres somethin for you....

use Great Stuf foam to fill in the veins on the trunk lid..... use caulk to seal any edges..... use the rubberized undercoating EVERYWHERE aha

works pretty nice... now my trunk shuts with a nice authoritative thud

eh?

 
By the time you buy enough undercoating to equal the thickness of a mat, youll probably end up spending more.

The great stuff foam is a good idea, try that out.

Yea, iam all about ghettoness //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

really not that much rattleing that I will be able to stop. The majority of the ratteling noise i hear is coming from my side mirrors. The plastic housings for the mirrors rattle like crazy for some reason. I don't think there is anything I can do about that.

of course there is.. my side mirrors got real annoying so just take them off

playin obviously but use great stuff foam, calk, and undercoating......... i have cheap deadening mats but in NY in the summer the heat would probably make them fall offf the lid of the trunk
