Sound Deadening Layers?

[TheGreatMonkey 10+ year member]

I'm going to be ordering my sound deadening tomorrow. And was wondering, how many layers should I install? Each roll is 50 sq ft. Be installing in a 06 Dakota extended cab. Not a Quad Cab.

do one and see if you still get rattles. If you do then do another layer. I say two would be sufficient

What kind of deadener is it?

B-Quiet. They are located in Canada, so thats why i'm getting it. Stuff gets pricey when you order stuff from the US and then have to pay fees and whatnot.

If it's high quality sound deadener, you only need 25% coverage in the middle of panels. If it's of moderate to low quality, do full coverage, then go from there.

EDIT: Link for a fellow Canadian?

i think this should be the link

http://www.b-quiet.com/

can also get it off ebay from them for a ocuple bucks cheaper

you can also buy fatmat in canada from a store in ontario same price

for the 50 sqft roll

Fatmat is asphalt based so don't bother. for b-quiet go for the ultimate because the cheaper one is the same as fatmat.

If your deadening a panels one layer whould be enough. If your deadening over empty holes 2 layers is needed to make it solid.

Just did 100ft in my car and will be ordering another 100 next week.

order it from ebay like kyleorsini mentioned to save a couple $$$ and you also get the roller with it.
