[QUOTE="SSS 18734, post: 4276747, member: 559710"] Fatmat is okay. But when you compare it to Raammat, you can feel that the raammat weighs almost twice as much. Raammat is also rubber based. fatmat also doesn't stick nearly as well as raammat does. So what does this mean? 1) You have to apply twice as much fatmat, meaning its going to be harder to get your door panels back on smoothly. 2) You're going to have to do twice as much work applying it. 3) Your car is going to smell like a cement truck for a few weeks. 4) You risk it peeling off in the summer. Trying to remove messed up sound deadening is a feat in itself. So my recommendation to you? Don't make the same mistake I did. Get the raammat and use less of it. But if you do decide to go fatmat, make sure to clean the shit out of everything you apply it to. 100 square feet MIGHT be sufficient for all of the above. 50 square feet got me my two front doors and my giant trunk lid. Also keep in mind that you're going to have to do 2-3 layers of fatmat to produce the same results as 1-2 layers of raammat. [/QUOTE]
