Re: looking for cheap but effective dynamat

I found a bunch of wide pipe wrap on ebay that I used in my chevelle, it had a foam layer with adhesive on one side and aluminum on the other. It is also good for insulation for heat.

This car has an x-pipe with straight-through style mufflers that dump right before the axle, and it is remarkably quiet in the cab.

Re: looking for cheap but effective dynamat

Hey meathead,

I am to lazy to look up the old post, but someone on the site mentioned using this stuff from lowes and seemed to have been happy with it.

Re: looking for cheap but effective dynamat

Yeah found some. It wasn't this kind exactly but this is similar:

*EDIT* that stuff at lowes looks the same, and its a little cheaper if you take into account the shipping.

Re: looking for cheap but effective dynamat

This stuff is very good. I used it on a couple of my cars with good results so far...

Re: looking for cheap but effective dynamat

FatMat is very good and priced reasonably. IMO it is better than Dynamat.

You can get FatMat on Ebay for a very good price also.

Re: looking for cheap but effective dynamat

I've mentioned it in this site before: I followed that FAQ on the Peel-&-Seal and I thought the stuff was very ineffective. I would not use it again. It also SUCKED to get off.

Next time I'll go with a real sound deadener... my .02

Re: looking for cheap but effective dynamat

I've heard good things about this stuff called brown bread

www.b-quiet.com/

There's even some comparison tests on the site.
