Our carpet came in today, which put me on the track of underlayment. I was considering coating the entire cabin floor with bed liner - actually I'm still thinking about that - but searching here on the trusty forums, led me to a nifty product called "Peel & Seal." Basically this is a roof repair solution found at Lowes, but seems to also be used as a low-cost rival to Dynamat for sound deadening. Anyhoo - after searching on line I found the company that makes Peel & Seal here: http://www.cofair.com/roof.aspx http://www.cofair.com/peel_seal.aspx You'll see "Peel & Seal" in the lefthand navigation. But the page you land on is about another product called Quick-Roof which seems to be basically the same stuff just in larger rolls. And here is a link to an online retailer who sells both the aluminum and white versions of Quick-Roof in 18" and 33" wide rolls. http://www.gibraltarbrands.com/ProductCart/pc/viewcategories.asp?idCategory=2&pageStyle=H And here's something else that looks really cool from the same company... http://www.cofair.com/wind_waterguard.aspx Just fodder for the ongoing discussions...
Peel and Seal being 6" wide makes it easier to apply. When I did my Maverick I cut it no longer than 10"-12" strips. I wouldn't want to try and do a car with 18" or 33" wide...nothing is really flat enough to justify that width. Peel and Seal sticks once it touches anything.
that stuff makes me want to pull up the underlay i used and use that...looks so damn clean and nice to work with...did i ever have to fight the underlay i chose to use. i should atleast do my trunk with it, whats the weight like..is it light compared to other underlays? the rolls look small
45 mil...about the same as Dynamat http://www.caraudio.com/forums/misc...l-cheaper-alternative-dynamat-secondskin.html
I have about 10 rolls in my Mav. 3 layers on the toe board/firewall to windshield pinch weld. 2 layers on the floor and 1 layer on the roof. I still need to go back and do the inside the doors and quarter panels...maybe inside the trunk. Each roll weighs close to 4 lbs.
Yea lowes carries the stuff, real good stuff; I used in my 4 door, gave some spring to the vinyl floor also. I would reccomend truck bed liner as well, inside
I sanded and cleaned the metal good before spraying 2 coats of Rust Bullet over a two day span. I gave the Rust Bullet two more days to dry before applying the Peel and Seal. I didn't see any signs of the P&S letting go with the car sitting outside for 2 or 3 weeks in the 100+ degree heat with the windows rolled up. I even tried to peel it off to make sure and it wasn’t going to happen before having the headliner installed.
