Second Skin is #1. I have used MANY other manufactures, but after using SS, I am sold.

In my opinion if you are going to compete then go with Second Skin Damplifier pro... It is the best you are going to get and is not much more then dynomate extreme.

If you are going for extreme SPL. a sprayed on liquid - like Second Skin Spectrum is your best bet. Turns your sheet metal into a rock.

Yeah, but those CLD tiels are no joke either!

Spectrum is a great way to acomplish your goals.

I was just in the warehouse and mixed up a 5 gallon batch of Super Spectrum for a custom project. We added teflon and a poly urethane resin to it.

Going to be sick!!

its funny you ask... As far as audible difference i cant help you there i dont own a meter...but i can tell you the layer of fatmat i had in my doors did do something. had less rattles thats for sure... Once it started peeling off is when i got irritated. So i thought what the heck lets try some second skin. So i advised a customer to get SS for his ride. I installed it everywhere in his truck and it made a huge diff. Now there was sheets left he said i could use. So i ripped out the fatmat to see if it was really that good. Well it really is THAT good! ZERO rattle noise unlike the fatmat.

that is all..

but if your on a budget SS pro is def. not a good option lol

Any mat with a high quality butyl adhesive and a decently thick foil facing is going to take 1/10 - 1/6 as much material to do what ANY asphalt product will. Damplifier Pro will probably do better than that. No, I don't want your "prize".
