SS "Overkill" - Any good?

[ls2poweredgoat 5,000+ posts]

Thinking of ordering $100 worth.

My doors are already fully deadenend with Damplifier/Pro, inside and outside sheet metal. Was thinking of ordering some Second Skin "Overkill" for noise insulation. $100 gets you 90 sq ft, I figure that should be more than enough to do doors/floor of the car (2001 Accord Coupe).

Never really heard too much about it here on the forum. With exception to my front floor, the entire car is deadened with Damplifier/Pro and R-Blox. The rear seat area and rear wheel wells on the side have about an inch of sound deadening lol.

Thoughts? Opinions? Just trying to make the car a little quieter when I'm blasting down the highway.

Regular old carpet jute under the carpet, goes a long way killing road noise //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Ensolite or overkill for the doors, jute for the floors. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Thin sheets of closed cell foam are much more effective for gasketing to prevent rattles than they are for anything other than very high frequency sound absorption.

That makes sense.

is Ensolite just as good as Overkill and Overkill pro? I love SS products but i'm not sure I have the funds for overkill

I consider them completely interchangeable. Overkill has a slightly coarser texture, but I have no idea if that makes any difference at all.
