Second Skin Damplifier Premium Car Sound Deadening Material (1mm) – Butyl Rubber Auto Sound Deadener Mat (10 Sq Ft, 5 Sheets) – Made in The USA

I wanted a sound deadener for underside of riding mower hood, I choose this because it was recommended for under hood higher temps and I wanted something with a black color which I thought would be better than a reflective color as I didnt want to reflect heat back onto the engine. I used denatured alcohol to wipe the areas clean as possible first then used some 12 aluminum foil to make a template, marked the sheets and cut them for some curved edged sections. I slit the backing at the center and peeled and folded back the middle and lined it up with center alignment marks then a small wood roller to press it down and adhere it, peeling more area of the backing in small steps and got it down well that way. Two diagonal cuts in 2 sheets made up better irregular coverage (4) pieces for the sides of the hood. I actually used the 2mm, 4 sheet kit, I bought directly from their site.

I purchased this product as an alternative to Dynamat Xtreme because it was slightly cheaper and included Prime one day shipping. I already completed the inner and outer door skins on 3 doors with the Xtreme, but I needed some additional CDL sheets to complete the 4th door. I was very happy with the project up to that point and was pleased that my car did not have a strong butyl or asphalt smell like some of the products I have used in the past. It still had that pleasant new car smell. The addition of Second Skin Damplifier changed all that. Although this product has good adhesion and it is easy to work with, it has a very distinctive odor. Close to a month has passed and the smell has not even begun to fade. It is the first thing I notice every time I get into the car. The smell is so strong that I even disposed of the left over tiles that I had stored for future use since that was all I could smell in the storage area as well. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra few dollars to get the Xtreme or one of the many other odorless alternatives.

Great product! Works great!!

Just as advertised. Great products from this company.

I used Second Skin Damplifier Premium Car Sound Deadening Material (40mil) – Butyl Rubber Auto Sound Deadener to reduce the noise coming from the rear hatchback area of my 2019 Hyundai Ioniq. When driving at 50+ mph the people in the back seat had some difficulty following the front seat conversation. After doing some research I discovered that it is not uncommon to get a rumbling noise from the trunk area of a car because manufacturers skim on sound deadening. This is the case with the rear hatch area of the Hyundai Ioniq. Apparently, one of the causes of this noise is that the metal begins to resonate at certain speeds and it can get kind of loud. Anyway, my research also led me to buy the 2nd Skin sound dampening material described above. I was very impressed with how easy this 2nd Skin product was to install in the spare tire well under the floor of the hatchback area. The material easy cut with a pair of cheesy scissors I had almost stopped using. I dry fit each piece making cuts where necessary, such as around the fitting where the spare tire is screwed down and any places that might require mechanical access in the future. I purchased one box of the 2nd Skin material and it was enough to do the entire spare tire area, but only the spare tire area. Each piece was rolled flat as directed by various Youtube videos from various installers of 2nd Skin and other sound deadening manufacturers products. It took me right at one hour to get the job done and then another 10 minutes or so to get everything picked up and put the spare tire and gear back in the car. Afterward, we went out for a drive and there was a very noticeable reduction in the noise we were hearing. The passenger was able to hear the conversation going on in the front seats without any problem. At some point in the future, I may sound deaden the inside of the right and left rear quarter panels of the hatchback. I expect that will make things even more quiet in the rear seat. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this product, and how easy it was to use and most important...it solved my noise problem with minimal cost and time.

box came open from the factory and there was some light damage to these very expensive sheets, however i made do.. if you can afford to, buy the thicker material..

Got here super quick. Easy to install. and my ride is so comfortable now. Will definitely do this to my other car .
