You've made a great investment in comfort Sir. I've done this to every classic car I've owned. It also takes away the tin sound while driving. So diagnosing problems suspension brakes drivetrain will be enhanced. I strongly recommend doing the roof it's a giant steel drum skin. You might get great before and after readings on your decibel meter. For the roof save product and do long strips full product width with a 6 inch gap. I used to do the whole roof covered. Then a good family friend in the movie sound production biz told me this and he was right. With the bottom of the vehicle yes. Friction nose from wind tire contact suspension actuation bearings road conditions etc..... but the roof is just a steel patio cover keeping out wind sun and rain.just a suggestion. Love the channel

[@sergiougalde1110]

Thanks for the input, and I will be very grateful if you could elaborate more on how you insulate your car's roof!

[@shimes424]

If you cover the entire roof (like I do) you'll get better insulation, especially in the winter. Though I admit I only do it so I can hear myself think when it rains heavy, so the strips might save me some cash.

[@tprovo6951]

So if I put Kilmat on the bottom of my weathertech mats would that add a benefit???

[@davidBarrel]

so among noise... is it good to keep high temperatures (cold heat) outside of the cabin ?

[@jacobvance429]

killmat is a great product. Sound dampening isnt difficult but it is definitely time consuming. If you know what you're doing and thorough in your work, its an all day project just to do the doors, a full weekend to do the entire vehicle and two full weekends to do the ceiling and trunk (yes the trunk does matter and make a difference). Kick it up a level and add a layer of mass loaded vinyl over the butyl or killmat and done properly the vehicle will sound like a vault when you close the doors.

[@johnhalchishick7094]

Take those extra pieces and stick them on easy to reach firewall spots. Even behind the glove box, around the fuse box emergency brake , peddles ect. You will be surprised how even hit and miss little spots will change the sound or lack of sounds it will make. This stuff is well worth your time and if you found a cheaper source , that's even better. Definitely makes a huge difference in the doors. Makes old loose sounding doors sound tight as a drum. Love your post, keep up the good reasonable upgrades..

[@bigbair45]

I added this exact Killmat to my 2009 Duramax doors and also used foam on the inside of my door 4 panels. I can attest that you in fact are not having any placebo effect. My truck is so quiet now with just the doors done that you would never guess from the inside that it has a 3" downpipe and a 4" exhaust. I plan on doing the rest of the truck sometime next Summer. Love the videos Jimmy! Keep up the great work!

[@1RoadGarage]

Awesome!! Thanks man!!

[@jameshall4385]

you need to do the roof. that large metal surface is like a giant reverberator. i bet that would make an even bigger difference. try something with insulation properties. that would help with interior comfort from heat as well

Buddy of mine installed this stuff and his doors on like a 1950s truck what a difference made those doors sounds so tight unbelievable

[@383mazda]

As I understand it, killmat and other constraint layer dampers are for minimizing resonant vibrations in the structure of the car, not for blocking sound. In other words, you don't need 100% coverage (diminishing returns after around 33% coverage). But if course, dynomat and killmat aren't going to stop you from buying more than you need... Mass loaded vinyl is what blocks sound (road noise) and that's what you want full coverage on.

[@6980869]

im hearing kilmat first, then a layer of closed foam, theeeen cover it all w/the mass loaded vinyl ftw. Given, this is possibly up to a 1/2" of material added, so one must be very aware of placement of the stuff, for the fitment purposes.

In high school, science and history were my strong points. I studied IT/CS in college and tonight, I just learned that mill is a measurement in of its self!

[@jindiparks3767]

You are right “mil” is short for “millimetre”. There are 1000 millimetres in 1 metre, which VERY roughly is a yard. A mil is very roughly about the same as twice the thickness of your finger nail. 👍 (Also we have mils in liquid. A millilitre is 1thousand parts of 1 litre.

[@pfoxhound]

Next video idea: removal of multiple dents from doors.

[@bret9741]

It takes a lot more than just killmat to improve sound reduction. On newer quieter vehicles the manufacturer uses a combination of mass load and either closed cell of fiber based insulation. In additon the manufacturers have added better wheel well liners and bonded depleted rubber bonding on the exterior surfaces under the vehicle. In addition, the higher end vehicles have double or triple layer glass, double weather seals, and some are even adding noice deadening through the factory radio system.

[@erwin643]

True. I ended -up with a good sound-dampening effect just by installing after-market ABS wheel well liners in my 1995 Nissan Pickup.

[@bret9741]

@@erwin643 that is one of the best fast low cost sound reduction. I build custom homes and have gotten into sound deadening offices, movie rooms, music rooms etc… it’s pretty easy to sound deaden a large space. But cars are tough. There isn’t much room to decouple surfaces that transfer sound.

[@francescobertelli8588]

funny enough but after applying the Kilmat just on the front and rear floor of my Porsche 911 '82, I had the same feeling of being able to hear the music from the rear speakers... and I havent apply Kilmat to the doors yet! im super excited. super easy material to work with.

[@robertprice9052]

I sound proofed a vehicle several years ago. I used a name brand mat that did cost a pretty penny. If you want to up the game go back and put it on the inside of the door panels, and over the access holes on the inside door skins. Pu it in the inside of all the interior panels. In the back hatch, if there is no mechanism for the door or window (fixed back window) put the deadener on the inside of the hatch and then use a sound deadening foam, like an egg crate foam to fill the void. Do the inside of the panels and cover the access holes with deadener. In the hard to reach places like in the cavity between the doors and the back door and rear area use "good stuff" foam. In the back cargo area I put 1/4 neoprene foam under the carpet after using deadener on the skin, and cargo area. This was a vehicle drove daily, took hunting and camping, and my family on vacations. I always wanted to put deadener on the roof and have a new headliner put in, but its was just too much money. The vehicle already was like a studio booth when sitting in it with the motor off. Great video! Enjoyed it a lot.

I started doing this to my CRX even though I wanted to be lighter this is on my Daily driven CRX and added Deadener to quiet the cab inside. The exhuast sound is not bad but CRX make alot of road noise and with the B16A and 200 HP you can hear the Road per say. Now I feel like I am driving in a nice quiet Acura or lexus without the added noise. I can actually hear my music now and hear my own voice. I also added AC to the Car since I was not thinking of just purely racing but daily driving comfort. What a difference it makes

As a bonus I installed Road kill 3 piece speaker foams on and behind the door speakers, made a huge difference to the sound of the music. Took me 3 days because took the doors all the way apart but was worth it for the sound quality and insulation properties. Doors make that nice solid thud sound when closing.

Way much more money and time than 1st thought, but results is going to be good. Decided on the sound deadening part when I got a interior out of a wrecked Yukon, and had to spray paint everything on the inside to match. Was a no brainer for the killmat, it has good reviews. Am using the 50mil stuff on everything except for the floor, where I'm using the heavier. No matter what, it's going to be way better than before.

@@1RoadGarage I can understand that. I will be doing mine or more metal for not only sound deadening but also for thermal as I live in an area that gets far below zero and every little bit helps.

[@Des420]

It's not worth the effort for the minor improvement returns. You only need 20% panel coverage for deadening, and you'd be better off focusing on sealing the inner door off from the cabin (factory plastic cover), than an incomplete thermal barrier with this material. SecondSkin has some specific products designed for temperature and noise insulation if you really want to do it full bore.

[@AzraelIgnis]

Great video by the way. Your reaction was the same reaction I had when I installed it in my first vehicle. If you really want to quiet that cab you need to spend a hell of a lot more on different materials and layer them. I've installed dynamat in every vehicle I've owned and practically a professional at this point. It's expensive. To properly do it the amount of money you spend on the cost of the material has too high of a diminishing return for what you gain from it.

I'm an audio enthusiast so naturally I tend to gravitate to the best sounding system in every car and sound deadening is key. Expensive hobby.

[@cup_and_cone]

It took me about three full days to sound deaden a GMT800 Suburban: all four doors, the rear hatch, the roof, the quarter panels, and the entire floor. There was definitely a difference, but it was still louder than I had hoped because most of the noise is still coming from the firewall area, windshield, and door gaskets. It's impossible to reach the firewall without removing the dash itself, which is near impossible because of all the wiring looms and AC hardware. The windshield noise itself can't be fixed...unless you get some custom glass and fix the vehicles aerodynamics. And the door gaskets are just a combination of old age and design.

what’s these suppose to do , quite tire noise , road noise?

[@SuperCoyotecaller]

A lot of the sound is coming from your muffler area in the back. I had loud exhaust when I was younger and having a cab that goes over it exposes the sound more directly to the cabin floor. Double your Matte back there at least over muffler. Big difference.

There are apps on the phone that monitor and display the frequency spectrum. I find most of the "road noise" is low frequency that "masks" music frequencies. MLV absorbs those lower frequencies. The higher frequencies travel on air/wind, and are stopped by weather stripping and closed cell foam adhered to the door areas.

For the sound meter measurement, can you just use an app on the phone? How does the phone db measurements compare to the sound meter?

I’ve been thinking about doing this to my 2 door 94 Yukon I made up my mind now it’s a go

I use some M3 heavy duty spray adhesive as a primer. It makes it stick permanently and helps the product from peeling off with high heat from the sun.

I love old cars that are clean, that truck is definitely clean

I can't wait to see the next video when you do the rear

[@1RoadGarage]

Me either! Thanks for watching!

[@coltseavers5183]

Has the video of the rear hatch been done? 3:30

[@theocomer1]

Can’t wait to record my install on my channel. Thanks for a great video and explanation

[@fo1711]

Could you apply the kilmat 1.3mm OVER noico sound deadner 4mm (i installed teh noico first before knowing its was not for soundproofing... is the kilmat will stick good enough to the noico and then add another layer (third over all) of noico 4mm over kilmat after for better finish? Or should i just removed my previous noico 4mm layer for having better performance from the kilmat material? ty.

So crazy worth it i wish i would have dynamat my wagon before i put the interior in. My bro used a 50x10ft roll and did the entire inside of his 5.3 swap 63 impala i cant wait to hear how quiet it is once the interior is in 👀

[@goldielocked7111]

With so much room the doors, I was thinking one could use standard building insulation. If you got the place, it will kill a lot of sound. Tnx for the video

[@garybrown9719]

I got an old 1/4 horse mat that I think I'll try it's free You could spray bed liner I'm sure it would go into any nook and cranny

[@K03sport]

Stinger makes a spray on deadener... I'm sure others do too, but I only know of Stinger...

I got a feeling someone's going to put four 15s in the back of their truck
