I was so amazed at the difference in the sound when you shut the door.

how much did you order? and i suppose you're pretty happy with how it came out? lol

Square footage wise I don't know, but if you order Second Skin Damplifier Pro, a bulk pack would probably leave you with enough to do a double layer on the floor. (No experience with deadening a square body YET, but I had a door pack of it and it went a lonnnng way)

Menards has some stuff just like the car stuff but way cheaper. In the building supplies section. I like it. You have to glue it down with spray adhesive.

I used the Lowes equivalent peel n' seal..it's near the gutters. It stinks like tar, ONLY if you stick your nose in it and inhale like you were trying to snort it. It's been fine in my truck...

I was thinking about using Fat Mat...but on a Friday night, my Saturday plans got cancelled, so I said Fugg it, and ran to lowes to get it.
