Sound Treat your Car For Better Sound! | Boom Mat Spray

[@slickrickjones]

I bought a can of this about a year ago for a 71 Nova project. Forgot about it and got some brush in stuff. Ended up finding this and I’d GREAT! Ordered 3 more cans!

[@lowhertzhighspl]

buy a rubber license plate frame. vibrational sounds typically come from where parts are attached, not from body panels flexing. anti-flexing is for spl

[@childishd7368]

I bought a 2 pack of those silicone liscense plate mats and used one on my daily and one on my SUV I use to compete with. I strippped the sound deadener off my plate to install and it rattled after using the silicone covers on both cars so I tried silicone mats and deadener. Still rattled. Long story short those covers do not work to stop rattles from liscense plate in my experience but they look pretty 😎. Double sided tape or foam gasket works pretty good and costs less than plate cover or sound deadener kit. Just saying.

[@deagle1720]

I got a silicone frame for 5 bucks from my local auto store, and i put foam peices behind the plate. Problem solved, if you’re competing in car audio I don’t think anything is going to keep your plate from shaking, it’s just simply too much bass

[@64arguz]

Since Lexus LS series are famous for be quiet , I just went to the junkyard stripped one (old) sitting in there , I took home some samples of every kind of material used to make the insulation in such car and the way it is installed, now I am going to replicate the same “technology” in my Camry to TRY to get the same level of noise reduction .

[@4.8Flatbed]

Hell yeah, perfect idea homie, my ls400 is so quiet inside, even the 12 in the trunk. No rattles inside or out & there's no deadening. Thats not oem

[@cybergrindin]

Success?

[@arthurpogue235]

Yes it was definitely worth the effort to let us hear the difference in my opinion it made a big difference. Now going by this demonstration you made I know now that I will use it for hard-to-reach places and as a first step in the war against annoying rattles and pings. I will definitely do this first then Dynamat second thank you for your time and effort

[@Kpaceguy]

Thanks for watching

[@Monster33336]

I figured that even the expensive cars will still rattle, the difference is they use thicker glass and interior panels. You'll never eliminate or insulate all noise just enough to make the sound good. You also don't need it a pro, just try different materials until its good enough for you.

[@DanielsDen777]

Nice to see an experiment where the results are typical. I actually have an unopened can of this stuff and a roll of butyl tape (generic dynamat) and after owning my VW CC for 10 years, FINALLY decided to replace the front 6.5" components. Going to lay dynamat on the door shell behind the frame, especially behind the speaker, but I'm struggling to find a good use for this stuff. I THINK it would be could when coating elements that whack together subtly, like wiring harness against the metal, etc). Your video is proof that just putting a thin layer on a large piece of metal won't do much. I noticed your trunk lid includes the license plate such is USUALLY the culprit of bass rattle back there). I remember in the mid 90s we would fold up cardboard under each screw of the license plate and it would be like night and day... But thanks for the video, well done my friend. I've subscribed, I like your approach and the multiple BEFORE and AFTER samples. Best wishes.

[@texasoutdoorguru6812]

So does Velcro

[@AutoBodyEverything]

that stuff is meant for hard to reach areas where you cant reach to install the matting dampener like the far ends and corners of the inside of doors, the far ends of the inner 1/4 pannels, the complex shapes and holes where the break lights are located and other areas that are too impractical to use the damp matt.

What’s the verdict

[@johnhamilton6205]

Did you spray the back of your license plate and secured it better?

[@Kpaceguy]

I bought a rubber frame to put around it

[@Bhicks337]

Just an FYI, that car has a series of weights used to make it easier to close the truck hatch. When I removed the weights from my trunk a majority of the rattle went away.

[@jdigitalseven7]

I think this spray is more so hard to reach/non flat surfaces (like spare tire well). Probably using both this and dynamat together is best

[@michaelblocker7968]

[@focused313]

I would assume that this works just based on having some of my cars sprayed with plastidip before. It added some sound deadening properties as demonstrated by just knocking on the panels. I could hear the the difference in resonance. However, spraying without masking off the rest of the vehicle for over spray seems like a bad choice. I'd also use this in combination with a sound deadening "mat". Thanks for the vid.

The only way to eliminate the rattles and vibrations is to add weight. Adding weight by using a mass loaded vinyl with a backing, (dynamite, etc) or modeling clay can be used as well in some applications.

[@satanas666reyna3]

Now you gonna have to take that stuff off before you dyno Matt to stick better 😂

[@jonnathankiss]

You would have to do something with the seal of the trunk do to the construction of the trunk and how it has those runoff grooves. So it is like having a suspended sheet of metal in the air. So if you beefened up the trunk seal somehow you could eliminate the sound. To be honest I would be surprised if Dynamat helped that because of the overall trunk design. But let me us know if it does.

[@Kpaceguy]

Dynomat helped but it'll never eliminate it

[@309basshead]

[@saidtheblueknight]

Does this have a lingering smell to it, or does it go away pretty quickly?

[@Kpaceguy]

Overnight it went away but if sprayed in the does I'd imagine it'll last a couple days

[@TMouse-hd5jb]

I am surprised no one else has mentioned this to you yet. Take your tag off (while parked, not driving, and where you can place the tag back onto your vehicle before driving again) and redo the test if you have not done any further deadening. See if the rattle goes away? Most of the rattle does come from the license plate vibrating. If the results are much better, apply deadening to the license plate. Above all, I am really happy you are taking measures to get rid of that nasty "rattle trunk"! Cheers and good luck!

[@AutoBodyEverything]

thats horrible advice Im sorry lol...theres no need to strip away paint with such an agressive technique just to spray over it with a spray. can. Not only was this video a bad and incorrect way to use the product, all that would of needed was a scuff without removing paint.Thirdly rubberized products do not require any sanding, just a prep solvent cleaner. Stainless wire wheels are meant to be used on bare metal that was stripped by using a grinder or any method that removes the factory E-coat (paint stripper will not remove E-coat) which is a zinc galvanized coating that prevents the steel from oxidation (rust) when exposed to oxygen. The stainless steel wire wheel is used overtop of the bare metal because it releases particles of itself that will etch onto the bare metal and re-create an alloy coating, thus because stainless steel is an alloy and is a softer metal so it will transfer with heat and friction. If you wan to prep an impractical area for paint, you just need to scuff it with a soft and flexible scufff pad..... nothing too abrasive that will leave behind harsh scratches or even remove paint. The way an automotive factory processes metal panels is a whole other subject. Most amateurs will look at this as nonsense because it just does not make sense to them.

[@johnterpack3940]

I'm thinking of using a DIY roll-in bedliner. The purpose of the deadener is to dampen the resonance of the sheetmetal and any added mass will do that. I just don't think this spray stuff added enough mass to make a real difference. Also, there's nothing magical about Dynamat. Kilmat does exactly the same thing for a quarter the price. Literally any butyl mat will work as well as Dynamat.

[@VndNvwYvvSvv]

Noico is even cheaper. The absolute cheapest is roof underlayment, but if you want precut 80 mil, Mat66 is even a bit cheaper than Noico. It's about 17 lb per 36 sqft box, so I'm not sure what gets you the most mass per dollar.

[@johnterpack3940]

@@VndNvwYvvSvv the advantage of the bedliner is the installation. It covers every bump and curve perfectly. No need to cut. And there's no way it can come loose later. But I do believe literally anything will work. I'm not sure total thickness even matters.
