SoundSkins Stage 1: How To Apply Sound Deadening Inside of a Door

Showing how we use SoundSkins Pro to block out road noise and improve the sound of your car. Most vehicles these days have thin panels and lining the inside stops the vibrations and outside noise interfering with the cabin sound.
Lining of the inside panel should also be completed with the outside panel. Watch SoundSkins Stage 2 to see how we line the outer panels of the interior doors.

The best way to create a template is to cover the whole portion using a transparent plastic, then mark all the holes for ploughs, wiring harnesses and mark sides perfectly.. Now you have a single template for both sides to cut sheets into shape

[@SuperMan-uj7dh]

That's smart!

[@boltheadnuts2941]

Didn’t ur mum tell you to always cut away from ur self

[@katnip7976]

Do you put the OEM membrane (the plastic sheet with the black goo) back on the door after applying the deadener?

[@MrClemmo13]

I’ve only had my front doors deadened in my Commodore VE SSV special Edition. Would it make much of a difference if I also have the rear doors deadened?

[@Playboyer670]

How how many percent of the inner door skin is sufficient enough to cover?

[@jnorfleet3292]

25% has to do with the law of diminishing returns, 25% should be the minimal to strive for.

Your knife skills scare me

Sure! Here's an example comment in English for the video titled SoundSkins Stage 1: How to Apply Sound Deadning Inside of a Door: Great tutorial! The before and after pictures show how much difference this product makes. I love the sound quality now!

Fantastic hello from New York and a really quick question. Just had my 2021 Dodge Durango returned to me after auto body repair. I had a collision with a deer that damaged my driver side door. I immediately noticed that the door sounds completely Hollow. When I tap on it with my knuckles it sounds like an empty aluminum can. I did a comparison with the passenger side door and it does not make that sound at all. Do you have any idea what the body shop did or did not do to cause this hollow sound?

[@SoundSkins]

Hi GM, if your door had to be replaced by the shop, then the shop likely had to buy new parts for a door which could have been bare, and did not come with the same factory sound deadening (or aftermarket added sound deadening) that your car came with. We hope this helps!

[@sykcnt8012]

Not very intelligent mate? Just a wild guess but i reckon they didnt sound deaden the new door you NY Village Idiot. greetings from down under .

[@larioskot9138]

So I have to remove my car door?

[@SoundSkins]

No, you don't have to remove your door. You only need to remove your door panel and unplug the cable to install SoundSkins.

[@jin5632]

But my car has only the speaker hole. How do I cover the entire door ?

[@PFab]

Ahh the old hole in one trick. Just get someone with small hands in there. Couple beers and a little music should do the trick.

[@GOLD_FEVER]

[@genericdude6551]

Most people are lazy so they'll want to know just how much sound deadening material is really needed rather than have someone say to cover as much area as possible. As much trees and screw holes as my doors have would make the job very labor intensive. Covering every inch may not be worth my time.

[@NihadH]

The method shown is all very wrong (it's good for the CLD manufacturer though - maximum material consumption method). There is no benefit at all when covering more than around 66% of panel surface with CLD materials. Around 50% is quite enough. That principle also eliminates this very complex aspect of cutting and aligning CLD sheets to the precise shapes and contours of the panels. Was Sisyphus your application instructor?

[@NihadH]

@@Error-hc7mp Depends on the panel. For a small panel yes. For larger ones, several (2-6) smaller sheets roughly equally spaced apart on various parts of the panel. The larger the panel, more the sheets. There is no hard rule, but definitely no need to go even near 100% coverage EVER.

[@NihadH]

@@Error-hc7mp Usually no. Thicker might be even worse if different products are compared. No product has the same quality. Thicker could also fall off more easily.

[@seewall11]

Yup, bang on! This guy spent more time templating than doing.

[@wyldeyouth]

What about all the metal surface inside of the door? Im talking about the inside, opposite the outer panel? I don't think I've seen anyone do anything to dampen it. Wouldn't it be reflecting a lot of noise?

[@SoundSkins]

Hi Ingemar, yes you are correct. This is just stage one of the installation, there is another video giving instructions for installing material on the door outer skins as well!

[@Darkray84]

Thank you for showing your method, mate - but I don’t get why you didn’t do the same on the deadening material as you did on the cardboard? Because as you said “it’s the same angle” so why waste product and do unnecessary work (more cutting) by making a small gap between your templates on the deadening material?? FYI; another crucial point on why it has to be applied correctly (preferably with a pressure roller) is if there are small air pockets then it can cause moisture which leads to rust.

[@hakenkreuz7076]

Hey, kangaroo jack... Inches please 😉

[@seewall11]

Wow. A whole lot of work for full coverage. LOL. You must get paid by the hour. Stuff it in, approximate, take out, cut. Stuff it in, if it fits good to go if not trim then stick. Your not building a Space X rocket.
