Is this stuff good to use? Ive never really seen the stuff in person so I have no clue what it looks like? Is there different types of peel and seal?

Thanks

Falls off, from what I've heard. Not buytl based, or somthing like that. Search for a sound deadener comparsion, I saw a long detailed one that explained it.

asphalt based (I'm a dumbass - spelling asphalt with a f)

from what I've read, gooey, smells...

It compares to asphalt based deadeners like Edead....Personally I dont think its that bad...I am using a few layers to deaden my doors, and sticks fine...and no smell.

Ok I think it works now.

Peel and Seal should run you about $1/sq ft at Home Depot, that auction is a joke. Parts Express mats are Peel and Seal, Fatmat is Peel and Seal, and yes, Edead is/was Peel and Seal (they have so many revisions and apparently still overrate their deadeners). The guy who wrote the sound deadener showdown claims to have received samples of Edead and Fatmat which still had Peel and Seal markings on them. Peel and Seal is thin, and can melt fairly easily. It is about half the thickness of a quality mat like Raammat or Damplifier, so it takes 2x the Peel and Seal (or insert crappy product listed above) to match the effect of one layer of a quality mat. And since you can get quality mat for around $2/sq ft, it really shouldn't cost much/any more to get good butyl mat.

I put a layer of spray on rubber ($2.50 a can at Napa) on my trunk lid, let it dry, and then started layering P&S on the rubber. It held in places that had consistantly fallen off in the past and is still holding strong after a Michigan Winter. If you're going with the really cheap route, get a can or two of that stuff, and real P&S from Home Depot. If what I read is true, Home Depot P&S outperforms Edead V1.

If you're willing to pay a little more, RAAMAT is (IMO) your best bet for an inexpensive deadener that works.

You probally seen this link, but if you haven't look at it:

Take a look at this website, this has a very detailed review with good pics of different brands. If you don't have time at least check out the conclusion.

You really need to consider that square footage is not an accurate measure of what you get from your sound deadener. You need to consider thickness and weight. When you do, you realize it's cheaper to get Raammat or Damplifier.
