Well folks... for the past two days I have been laying down some dead shield (same thing as dynamat just a different name) and I am exhausted! This is some backbreaking work! I ended up using almost 50 pounds (48.2 to be exact) of the stuff and the amount of noise that has been eliminated is pretty freaking incredible!
This is how it worked out:
Trunk: 8 18inx32in sheets (32 sq ft)
doors: 1 18inx32in sheet per door (8 sq ft)
Interior: 6 18inx 32in sheets (24sq ft)
64 sq ft in all. You may think this is overkill... but the sounds that I am not hearing makes the trouble that I went through very worthwhile.
I want to give a special shout out to SlikNik and his very helpful videos and pg6speed for his reassurance.
Here are some of the pics from yesterday and today. I will post more as the sound system install progresses.
