[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8330023, member: 650438"] He's just speaking facts, fatmat is almost like peel and seal. It'll fall straight off in warmer weather and you need 2 full layers to even get proper results that a single sheet of deadener from another company can provide. You want a deadener thats both good in adhesive and has a strong aluminium sheet to brace the area along with lowering resonance. A cheap deadener that works well as in you only need 1 layer instead of two is stinger roadkill. With fatmat, you are actually getting ripped off because lets say their 50 square feet pack for 100$, you are literally only getting 25 square feet of an inferior product that wont work well in all weather environments. I can say this because i've tried a small door pack of fatmat on a door of my old corolla. California summers aren't that hot but the fatmat fell off within a week and made a mess inside my door. I cleaned off the surfaces with alchohol and properly rolled everything on and it still fell off. While lets say a pack of 36 square feet stinger roadkill costing 100$, I got way more midbass, sticks for months and is waaay beefier. One layer was stronger then two layers of fatmat. You got to calculate things to be cost efficient. [/QUOTE]
