New floor - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I changed out my rubber floormat last weekend. Did I miss anything?
First I cleaned all dirt etc. It had some light surface rust so I sanded it and hit it with some rust proof paint. I then added the window wrap to seal off some holes in floorboard (Truck used to be a Fire dept. had a lot of equip.) I then put the felt down. Then The rubber mat.
I dont know if the window wrap is as good as dynamat but it sure is a lot cheaper.

nice job on the window wrap. Seems like the same thing to me

It was somewhat quieter although it wasnt that loud to begin with. What I needed it for was to seal up a few holes from switches on floorboard and where wire went through the firewall. It was so hot during the summer, and I assume it would be cold during the winter with that much air getting in.
Anyways it seems to work really well. I would hate to have to remove it because it was very sticky.

wow that looks pretty dang good! if you dont mind me asking, about how much did it cost you to lay that window stuff down and about how much did you use?

nutsforchevys · 12-05-2009, 04:33 PM

I bought it a while back I think it was around $35 This is the second truck I have used that roll on and there is still a little left. But I just put it under the floormat and not under the seat.
