Peel in seal works great when extreme temperatures arent involved, but seeing that you live in florida I would go with a butyl based mat. My personal favorite is Second Skin Damplifier Pro.

I'll be doing my build with it soon //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I will give the V1 credit for staying but there isn't shiz for foil. Its more wise to save up for good deadening. Once you figure in the time to cut your hands up a little and work with the stuff its better to go with the good stuff and be over it.

Deadener is about mass. Buy something thats is as good with one layer rather 2-3 of cheap stuff to compare. 1 layer of good mat where you need it is superior to cheap stuff and going through the process twice.

peel and seal will start to melt and slide off when it gets hot

From what Ive heard RAMMAT and Peel N Seal is basically the same exact thing... Looks 100% the same.

I just used some Second Skin Spectrum that Chad sent me... Went on with a roller pretty easily. Didnt bother spraying since it was just a test. Goin to wait about another 1/2 hr and going to see what it did. Seems like pretty good stuff though.

Melts and falls off. Ineffective under ideal conditions. Waste of time and not worth the risk.

so basically wut u guys r saying is there isnt a sound deadener i would be able to pick up locally that would be worth my time. i guess i will hav to see if any of the fegs from local car audio stores hav anything

ive heard this so many times but i dont completely agree with it.

yes at first it smells like shit, but the smell does fade. and when it gets super hot i WISH mine would slide off so i could get it the **** off my doors and put on some real deadening //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

id personally go with the raamat if you're on a budget.

to this day i regret putting it on, and i tried to get it off by hand a good while back, to no avail.
