The BEST and CHEAPEST Way To Sound Deaden Your Car!!

Hey everyone! Here is a link to pick up a box of Kilmat! amzn.to/3O55Xv7

[@billreddy7593]

Be careful about applying kilmat to the inside bottom of the door. There are drain holes for the water that gets between the glass and the rubber gasket. If you block one, there will be water accumulation and RUST.

I just did my Subaru Forester tailgate. 2.5 sheets, "ting" is now a "tung". Tips : put the sheets out in the sun, and allow them to heat up as you are prepping the doors (this makes adhering and forming the mats much easier), and second, double-fold a peice of aluminum foil, and use it as a moldable template, to form to a 3D shape, then lay flat on the matting, to get your cut shapes. 👍

Need to go over it with foam deadening from sound skins or something similar. Need to do flor and roof as well.Road noise will go down tremendously.

[@robertprice9052]

Four screws will stop the tag from rattling. In the hatch cavity I would use an egg crate bed foam pad. I used egg crate foam in my Honda pilot in the body cavities that didn’t have moving parts (windows). I used a heavy acoustic mat on the door skins, then a thin mat on the door panels. Used heavy mat under the rear carpet and inside the body panels in the rear with the egg crate filling all the air space. The difference was night and day! The pilot had so much road noise it was nuts. I sound proofed it before a Disney trip and it was so much better. My wife loves it.

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

I'd be interested to see how well all that holds up after consistent use and heat. Thanks for watching.

[@Databyter]

I used a construction product called peel and stick, or maybe stick n peel, but at any rate it was a tar based roofing repair material that was self adhesive with a backing strip. It was cheap because it was not intended for car sound deadening, but to patch roofs or ducts etc. It came in rolls a foot wide, and other widths I think. It wasn't like a Matt material, I used it more for weight, to deaden the tinny sound of doors, trunks, etc. Any lightweight area that tended to sound tinny or buz this stuff would deaden. It might be more effective to use sound INSULATING materials in other parts of the car, like the floor, if that is an issue, but this was all I needed, because my car aready had good factory deadening in the floor. I just needed to put some ballast on some of those big panels. And this stuff was CHEAP. I got it at Home Depot years ago. Now the downside is that your car will smell like a roof job for a few days, but it goes away. The material gets hard and dries out, at least at the surface level. Plus I had my doors sealed with plastic anyway so it wouldn't have mattered even if it did smell a bit. But I know it doesn't because I didn't close up my doors right away. It took a few summers days for the smell to subside., and then when I put on my panels, I forgot about it, so I guess it wasn't bad. But it did seem to be tar based. It was like flexible black tar rolls, but perhaps mixed with other stuff because it wasn't that nasty. Just an idea folks, Worked great for my car. The side that wasn't stuck I believe had a foil coating, so it kinda looked cool too.

[@blatantmisconception]

You only did a small portion of that big ole rig. The roof and floor, when done, will cut noise! She is *really* good at that.

@@ExtremeDailyDrivers yeah unfortunately I had to learn this one the hard way. I was in the Navy, took 3 days of leave to do an install on my vehicle I had at the time.

Recommend material like that on inside for sure. I use thin padded weather stripping for my license plates. Keeps it from flexing or vibrating against the body. Running a heat gun or hair dryer over the sealer that the inner plastic liner and it allows you to re-use it providing you store it without sticking it to something on the side.

[@iNeedDrums]

If the goal was to eliminate rattle from a high powered sound system, this might help. Shoulda used that fancy kilmat under the spare tire, front floor, firewall, over rear wheel wells. Use your phone with an SPL meter to find air leaks and noise spikes to save time and fancy damping products.

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Good tip.

[@embfixer]

Great job. Did mine a few years ago and it made a big difference. I did have to go back in and add a strip over the plastic cups that the door lock pulls sit in because those things will rattle. For next week, If you install one of the small squarish cameras, I mounted mine using a screw for the license plate lights and ran the wiring through the factory harness. One word of advice, if you can, run the camera with steady power source and not the backup light power like they suggest. There is a delay in the camera coming on and I am usually almost done backing up before it finally comes on. I plan on changing that in the near future. Great job and great videos as usual.

It might have worked great but eventually, it will loosen and trap water. More importantly, Great Stuff emits a lot of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) which are poison gases. Most plastic emits VOCs but the foam will make it much worse.

[@FacialVomitTurtleFights]

If i'm not mistaken. The thinner sound deadening works better against high frequencies and thats why bass traps are chonky vs PC sound deadening which is uber thin to combat coil while and fan noise. If i am correct it would explain the lack of siginifact difference as road/wind noise waves will pass right through that stuff. Also most of the road noise is probably coming from the floor.. my 2 cents anyway.

Covering the entire license plate with the Kilmat is overkill. Need only 25% coverage. Closed cell foam would also work and it adds no weight. Bolting in the plate on four corners and filling the gap between the plate and the bodywork will prevent it from vibrating. Save the added weight for the body panels. Very clean job with cutting and placing the mats. Impressive.

@@ExtremeDailyDrivers Please note that my comment is meant to provide a bit more insight to the process. I'm working on a 1987 Jeep Cherokee Pioneer with 166,000 miles on it's 4 liter. I've removed most of the interior and in the process of doing the headliner, but also putting down some bedliner with 80mil Kilmat decoupler and some 4mm Siless foam insulation. I had a dash camera system installed, as well as a new head unit as I like having Bluetooth/handfree driving. The number of photo's I've taken will perhaps be compiled in a video editor, not to mention I should be using my GoPro and posting up as well. 😁✌

Once again a great video. 👊 🤟

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Thanks Dude.

To be honest, CLD materials (what you used) are designed to reduce vibrations. You’ll get a small amount of noise reduction as a byproduct. If your end goal is noise reduction, you need to get a roll of closed cell foam between 1/8-3/8”. Anything thicker will be too rigid and too heavy to be attached with spray adhesive. If you are going to use the foam, I would look for a high temp adhesive spray so that you don’t have to worry about the foam falling off in the summer and getting caught in your windows.

Great points and I thought I mentioned that in the video. This product is for reduction in vibration. As you said, you do get a little of noise reduction, but for the big, thin panels on the xB we wanted something to reduce the vibes and Kilmat worked great for that purpose. Thanks for watching!

[@SergioPena20]

@@ExtremeDailyDrivers I might have missed it to be honest. I like how it ended up. You both did a really good job.

[@HereticHulk]

Closed cell foam is meant to decouple the thing that is vibrating or allowing sound to pass thru from the thing that is meant to block sound. CCF, by itself does not reduce noise. You need mass to reduce noise - something like mass loaded vinyl that is decoupled with CCF used in conjunction with CLD tiles like Kilmat.

I prefer Noico over kilmat. it costs more, but it's heavier per sq inch

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Thanks for watching

[@antohooper6996]

You forgot to do the boot mate that’s how you deaden the sound for good underneath the Matt in the boot you needed to do aswel to stop the exhaust noise coming through.

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

This stuff doesn't stop noise, it stops rattles. Thanks for watching.

[@marktully391]

I would have put the rest under the front drive and passenger carpet. Then do 30% of the ceiling and you will see a huge difference!

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

That would have been a lot more work too. Lol, but in theory you're right. Thanks for watching!

[@swllz]

I saw a Lexus on your drive way. You can open the door panel on your Lexus and compare with your xB. To improve speaker sound, I have double layered Killmat behind door speaker drivers on my Camry.

[@kanialakim4985]

Great idea!!! How many square feet did you both actually have to use so I know how much to order. Mahalo!

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Just order from the link in the video's description. It's more than enough. Thanks for watching.

Was this all from the same box? Sorry for the late question

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Yes with TONS left over. We did our entire Miata with what was left.
