My experience with sounddeadenershowdown

are these tiles hard or a bit flimsy like other mats. like as in hardcover book or thick paperback?

Tough to compare to a book, but they are 10 mil foil with a flexible adhesive. You can definitely bend them pretty easily. They are easy to conform to any simple curve. Where you'd run into a problem is getting them to follow a complex bend - something that curves in 2 or more directions at once, like a corner. In most cases you shouldn't need them on a bent surface anyway. If you do, you'd want to cut them.

SDS - excellent products, very effective, fantastic costumer service. What's not to like?

^^^Whats wrong with you rocketman.LOL

SDS products are top quality. The stuff Don sent me to check out are quit impressive.

Rocketman I have some of the products SDS sells I will bring them by the shop or you can see them at USACi finals and see the product in person.

I heard your vehcile is apart if you plan on doing some deadening get a hold of Don. It is what you want to use.

The best approach is to actually measure the areas you want to treat - total square inches / 240 = the number of tiles you will need.
Generally, 5-7 CLD Tiles on each exterior door skin, 2 more, cut into smaller pieces on the interior door skin and if you like, 2 more for the back side of the trim panel.

For a trunk. 10-12 on the floor, 3 around the sides of the spare tire well, 3 or 4 on each quarter panel, 2 or 3 on the trunk lid and 3 or 4 on the rear deck.

38 for a good job, 52 if you are going to pound on it.

haha ill prolly order 36(save on shipping ftw) , since ive got some damp pro lined on etire of my trunk lid and most of my left side of trunk..... didnt know what i was doing when i ordered it so did full coverage //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

lol i dont question his products, im sure its really good! i was just wondering the texture of it...i dont know crap about the science of it lol...like when i read "tile" i was thinking floor tiles so i just got confused...as for my car, i already deadened it a long time ago, just gonna clean it up a bit, but finals seems far away outta my reach, school just slapped me in the face with a giant bill

Its a pretty thick but bendable product. Its not like a floor tile. at all.
