There are a bunch, some are more expensive, some are less. You can tell what I use - it works and it's pretty good value. Kolossus is 100mil. I've heard other people say there's some stuff sold in small tiles rather than large sheets. I've also seen a site where they do something different, can't remember what it was - does anyone else?

In my eyes - if it sticks, lasts, resists vibration, and withstands high temperatures, should be good to go. I'd also look for value. Stuff like dynamat isn't cheap and most other options that cost way less work at least as well.

Kolossus Why u use something different for doors ?

 

[fly_marlin]

Kno Knoise is 80mil, which most other manufacturers sell as their "extreme" version. That's plenty for the doors, plus I didn't want it to be too thick that it interfered with any electronics in there. The trunk doesn't have those restrictions, plus subs vibrate stuff way more than mids.

To be honest, trunk rattling never bothered me. Doors to me are essential. What bothers me now is the rear dash rattling, which can't be deadened and needs to be decoupled.

If you've got some series bass and really want to deaden the trunk, I'd even do 2 layers of the 100mil stuff.

If you are really dreading your sound, you should prob get a set of these ....30 dB ear muffs ....

one of the best cost to quality ratio

100mil

Reckhorn ABX-tra 27.8 Sq Ft X 100 Mil

80mil

Reckhorn ABX 21.5 Sq Ft X 80 Mil

I think people on here are afraid to try them b/c they are not a big name, but the quality is great for the price, i was very impressed.

I always recommend dampifier b stock, I have sound deadening in my door and CCF and MLV. I have 2-3 layers on my roof of sound deadening and I glued some CCF to the headliner. I used the cheaper of the Second Skin CCF, MLV and sound deadening.

I used Alphadamp and loved it. I cheaper out on my truck and really regret it.

I need to do my roof next and I'm going to use KNU.

yes, do not get it, it is horrible, get the reckhorn instead.

i had initially used the gtmat and it was so thin, i got the reckhorn to put over the gtmat and it was alot nicer than the 60mil gtmat

Reckhorn have that nasty tar smell? Have a kiddo, don't want to expose her to that stuff if I can. Was looking at the knukonceptz one too, just want one that's easy to apply and doesn't have a horrible chemical smell.
