Yeah, going cheap always solves the "went cheap, and it didn't work" problem

Audiotechnix and B-quiet seem reasonably priced.

Sounds like you did not PREP the areas properly to adhere the deadner right.You need to clean the surface with either soap and water/degreaser,and or Alcohol before attatching the deadner For Best results,even use a heat gun after applying works best that I have done.I use FATT MATT, and Have 0 Issues,after applying with the preperations.

You don't have to prep anything with the AT, it'll stick to anything.

would it be smarter to double up 60mil or just go with some 80mil audiotechnix?

Deadener isn't meant to brace a panel, it's meant to add mass so just use 1 layer adding more layers isn't really going to do that much. I can't say much though, I have 2 layers on my roof + a good amount of MDF. People try to use deadner to stop flexing but it's not necessarily meant for that.

i see what your sayin, ill just get the 80mil thickness and be done with it
