- This is a quick review and tutorial for how to sound deaden your car for multiple reasons. I do it for car audio but you can do it to any vehicle to improve the experience of riding down the road. In this video I am using US Seal Waterproof Tape you can find it every Home Depot in the plumbing department for $16 a roll.
Some people are saying that this stuff will melt and cause a mess. It's not true. It's works just fine. It's not as good as the real deal when sound deadening but this DOES get the job done on a budget. The speaker sound quality and road noise will be greatly improved.
It's a Fact.
Mustaine4prez .01% improve road noise!
how is it sopposed to go on a roof if it melts?
Is it true that it smells bad during hot days and that you jave to replace it very couple of years?
@@1king911 Lol no, you don't understand physics. Any thick material will reduce vibration, doesnt have to be a "special chemical formula". The only problem is maybe the fumes but the "real" stuff is probably the same material anyway.
@@tehdreamer this is made with an asphalt base because it's made to melt into the roof you're repairing. Same thing as roofing tar. The quality sound damping is made with a butyl rubber base.
In the UK, England, the brand here is flashband by bostik. 👍
Thank you
Flashband is apparently thicker, heavier and stronger adhesive than peel n seal. Flashband stands the test of time.
NIce!
I've already used Peel & Seal in the cab of my 1990 Dodge Cummins Turbo Diesel project, so yeah. I need state-of-the-art sound dampening. The rear corners of the outside of my standard cab already sounds like knocking on the side of a tank!
Just bought a brand new door shell for the driver side, so IOW I've blessed myself with a virgin door to work with. I like your focus on that passenger door. Even gave me an idea or two.
Awesome man! It works really great!!!
Used the replacement brand for this from Home depot about a year ago on the rear deck that housed 2 6.5 speakers and Honestly it did tightened up the base. It went on easier than dynamat and was more flexible. No smell, has not melted and positive results. I've already have done my whole trunk with Dynamat so i won't bother with that location but I I'm going to do the doors on the bare spots that I ran out of dynamat.
Yes!!!
How many rolls would you think would be needed for doing the two front doors? Not inner sheet metal just outer
@@giladzvi4066 One roll would be enough. Almost a year and still sticking and no smell. I purchased a couple of rolls just to have around in case they discontinue.
@@giladzvi4066 One roll should be enough for the two doors. Purchase an extra one for safe keeping as you never know when they will discontinue this brand.
@@rogerdjs Thanks so much. How many layers did you use for your doors? Just one?
I did the whole car, a 2012 subaru forester, with a complete cdt audio system, with image tweeters, center channel , two subs from the past ,directed comp x, and two mids in the seperate rear.area from audio pipe and two of their tweeters
Good stuff dude I almost bought that product on a guessing trip at Menards yesterday will be returning to the store to purchase five rows.... It's the same thing bro..##thanks doggie..##
I used a bitumen based sound deadening material all over my doors, floor , roof etc then I used a material on top of that called Tecsound 100, which is used in buildings. It is 10 kilograms per square metre, its really heavy stuff designed to stop noise cold, then there was a trouble spot In the car which I wasn't happy with so I bought a giant sheet of lead flashing tape which weighed like 28kg's and used it under my back seats. Furthermore I have used the tecsound on my arches on the interior and exterior. Closed cell foam all over the car. Used pyramid shaped acoustic foam sheet glued to the underside of the parcel shelf to further reduce boot noise. My car is like a tomb now!! Next will be to modify the suspension top mounts so there's more of a buffer zone on them to reduce vibration from the road!
better idea just replace your shocks if you are getting vibration from the road, that is their job. If you are getting vibration, it is time to replace them, don't touch your mounts unless you want a worse ride
rolf
For a $120 dollars and on top you can use some closed cell foam with adhesive behind speakers and floors doors,trunk,and between door panels for extra protection and noise block
If you do not count rusting problem. Yes Closed cell will get moisture to after some time.
I don't think that many claim this stuff doesn't deaden sound. I think their complaint is in regards to longevity. I don't know about the one you are using but I've read where some of these products off gas/smell. Some also don't like the heat and will melt. Again, I'm not saying the one you picked does any of this. Just that some of the cheaper products apparently do.
I couldn't afford dynamatt wen i was building a car a few years ago. Stumbled across this in a hardware show and gave it a try.
No regrets worked well. And really cheap as compared to dynamat and other known brands🤦♂️
Damn, You should to rip that birds nest out and do some cable management. We are all doing shit on a Budget but being neat doesn't cost a dime
Lol
If you want your vehicle to not rattle at all and to be 100 percent sound dampened take out all the carpet and remove the interior body parts and then apply some rubberized undercoating and then apply lots and lots of dynamat and then re apply the carpet but this time apply 4 layers of carpet and then apply some foam to the walls and some polyfill on the walls and re apply the body parts remember your walls and the floor and the ceiling will need dynamat and rubberized undercoating as well
Christ.
dont use this unless its on floor or horizontal surfaces. not hanging it will fall and make a mess
You better not have a hot wire hanging around. Those aluminum films might ground the wire lol
In Quebec i used similar stuff in my doors for 6 years no problems, now looking for evidence i can do it again against not
What's the thickness of this tape ?
My next sound project! Good info! 👍
So what's the thickness of this tape ?
Im in Australia. Is it butyl tape or asphalt tape?
thanks a lot bro I thought you a video of you using that and I'll put it into my car that stuff works better than sound in there and it's cheaper so thanks for the heads up in the video of that much love keep it up bro
Richard Shavers no problem man. It's not specifically for car sound deadening but it works great and is super cheap. I have several layers around my truck.
how many layers do you recommend in doors and around wheel wells? thanks!
3 types of people who say peel and seal doesnt work, peel who "knew a guy" who had a bad experience with it. Or the guy who says it was all falling off within the year(which makes sense because we all know some people cant wrap their head around preping a surface) and finally businesses and their employees who fill the forums with how "dangerous and horrible smelling the peel and seal is because of the asphalt?!!" Well even if it did smell at first(ive never noticed it and we are hitting the 100s around here this week) it will go away. How do i know? Go to the walmart parkinglot, roll down your windows. Are you overwhelmed by the asphalt and tar smell that is covering several football fields worth of area? Didnt think so.
not bad main not bad! gunna give this a shot! thx bruh keep the vids comin
Thanks buddy! I try to do things the right way and still save money. It's true that this tape isn't a super expensive "car audio brand insert here" but it works, is affordable and is readily available at home depot. Thanks for watching and feel free to subscribe and share.
Well siless gives you the same for the amount and same price, and I'm the one who did the 2012 forester 6 years ago, so now that prices have dropped yes I recommend to use siless 50mil or 80 mil, it's almost the same price
Doors contain drain holes so care must be taken to not cover them.
Where did u get those door speaker pods I have a isuzu n cannot find any
Could you stuff your doors full of fire retardant wool or insulating material for the same result?
No. Because these doors have windows. The windows have a seal at their bottom edge that will allow water into the door cavity.
i plan on doing this
From experience, this does work but there is a downside. The downside is that if you put it on the inner door shells. It will slowly fall off and make a mess. Now if you lay it flat down it will stay. Like under the carpet or seats. This stuff is made for the roof so it needs to be layer flat down.
In my own experience it only falls off unless you prep the surface correctly
@@stinkyarmpitbass6259 I can agree with that. I didn't clean the area that I was applying it too cause that stuff is pretty sticky as is. I do have some at my spare tire compartment but I'll never apply it to my doors again.
@@300zVinh yeah man the only reason I know that to be true is because on one of my door panels interior I rushed the process and didn't scrape away the oil and dirt that had accumulated over time and it ended up sliding down and melting
Are you really saving money if youre paying what youre paying per roll? Then going over the same area 2 other times?
All I can say in New York for 6 years no problem
Fa Sho!!!💪💪
Now the prices have dropped over the years, so on my new 2017 prius I'll do it with siless it's really cheap and compared to each roll its about13 or less square feet
Only because price has finally dropped is worth it, to try the siless which is the same silent coat they use in the uk.
Have any more videos on Sound Deadening?
king overload I don't right now buddy but hopefully I will soon
I just used some Home Depot Butyl tape, 60 mil ....did this shit hold up okay?
did this ever un stick off with hot and cold weather after time?
Tony Maldonado I had some on my Windows that came off after an extreme summer with my Windows up in an all black truck.
I have not had any problem in over a year through all seasons. I've applied it on my rear deck, rear side panels, and some bare spots in the trunk. Mind you these were all horizontal surfaces. I just put it on my door panels so we'll see how it does on a vertical surface.
I respect your opinion but hear me out, I DID THIS AND HIGHLY REGRET IT. read my review if you plan to try this.
In short: I thought the same thing till this made a MESS in my vehicle. Use real auto sound deadening materials in an auto application only.
Explained... Although this seems to be the same stuff as a dynamat or other auto sound deadening product, it is surely not. It''s similar and will work but it has a DIFFERENT mixture of the "rubber TAR" backing designed to melt in the heat a little at a time resulting in a good seal on a home roof but a mess in an automobile.
Installed ON A ROOF it will melt, bleed through, drip and stain your car's interior, headliner, seats, carpet etc.. Installed IN A DOOR, it will melt, drip down and clog the important water drainage holes / vents / areas which were designed to allow water to drain from your car door.
I do highly recommend using sound deadening material and can testify it makes a huge difference in sound quality, I have even competed and won multiple IASCA sound quality competitions, BUT make sure to use a product designed for such use and avoid future issues.
Matt D I agree it has definitely gotten messy
+StinkyArmpit Bass yo my dude check out Noico sound deadening on Amazon trust me 60 but for doors and trunk check it out dude free hook up ..... your welcome..
Are you saying this actually happened or are you taking the piss?
Wally Tee, If you're asking me, yes, this actually happened and continues happening to me in a vehicle I have. It's a huge mess, drips down on every hot day, gets all over the leather seats, headliner, windows, you name it. This stuff is not meant for this purpose and without a doubt, it fails and makes a never ending mess. I literally pull drips / chunks of tar off as they drip down every couple days.
Matt D, you are a damn liar. 100 percent full of shit. While it is not a great sound deadener, is will not melt into drips. There is not enough material to melt into drips. Why you lie like a bitch man?
does it have a bad odor? heard complaints of such. can you please do a vid to show how to clean the metal? thanks!
Gary Z a mild odor that stays around a week. Put one layer on and it's night and day. I usually do 2-3 for extreme deadening!
nice! I just finished mine
Cash Only Garage that's awesome, did you notice any difference?
79$ for 36 Sq feet of noico sound deadening on Amazon, if people can't afford that then I don't know.
if it works just as well and is easier to work with AND cheaper, there's no reason to buy off amazon.
why do you guys do the inside of the doors and not the outside? I'm about to add 6.5's and want to know which to do please
LOL
Does it really make a difference?
Huge difference! Night and Day!!
Yes there are better, but on a budget it's great, I'm considering siless now because its 80 mil, for 100.sq ft
Did you notice any strong odors in the car from the adhesive? I've heard this stuff stinks really bad after being installed.
depending on the time of the year that you do it the odors can be a bit much, I did my entire vehicle in the middle of summer with 2-3 layers. My Isuzu doors sound like a BMW/Benz when they shut lol. With the heat building up throughout the day the odors were strong but only stayed around a week. During the fall/spring/winter I don't smell it at all.
Just put this in my car... QUESTION: I live in South Carolina... do you think that's going to smell in the summer?
It might a little bit but after a few days it should go away.
Hey great job. Have you noticed any reduction in road noise?
Catweasle yeah man it's huge, it's honestly night and day. Right off the bat when you do the inside panel of one of your doors and you shut your door you hear that dull "THUDDD" sound. There was literally no insulation or sound Deadening in my doors. When I close my doors now they sound like a BMW or Mercedes.
have in mind that iff you upply another layer above the main you increase the results to +30% more!
How can you do this withouth bringing more weight to car?
By removing your rear and passenger seat... the increased weight is half of the mechanism in all sound deadening.
Hi there, I am going to HD today to get this and try on my CRV. Do you still recommend it. Thanks for your reply in advance.
Yes, I still promote it and in my opinion is still is the best bang-for-the-buck you can get for sound deadening. Before you put it on though just make sure you prep your surface and make sure there is no dirt or Grime or oil.
@@stinkyarmpitbass6259 thanks so much for the reply. Good to know it's still going good a d there are no melting issues. Going to start from the trunk of my car.
@@smashit002 yeah man you might have a little bit of a smell for a couple of days but that will eventually go away and for all the people saying it melted and fell off well that's because they probably just put it right onto a surface that was still dirty
What's wrong with using the real stuff after spending time taking door panels apart.I don't understand??
Stephane Menard Nothing wrong with it if you are okay with paying more money.
StinkyArmpit Bass yeah I hear you,after spending hour taking doors and floors apart .I would just hate to do something twice or have the feeling that it just worked so-so.
Stephane Menard I totally agree! I've used a ton of the major brands and they work great. With all of them you have to pay to play so to speak. This is a similar product to those that works just as good if not betyer at a fraction of the price. I hear people saying that the sound dampner Im using in this video came off and didn't do well. I know from first hand experience that if you don't clean and prep your surface before installing it will come off. Overall for the price it is hard to beat in my opinion.
What is the name of this tape
Please tell me the name of this tape
did you double it or single layer
Jay Taylor triple on the roof, sides and floor. On my doors at least double layers although for most people one layer would be all they need.
Thanks
This stuff is not the same as real sound dampening products like Dynamat, Hushmat, and so on. It is not as thick, or as dense. It does not hold on as well and does not dampen any where near as much as the real thing.
People spend thousands of dollars on their sound systems. Don't go cheap on your sound deadening...
Ron Le Vine if you want to completely eliminate all rattling inside your vehicle cut out all the carpet and then spray the inside of the vehicle with rubberized undercoating and then wait until it's dry and then apply dynamat to the inside of the vehicle and finally re apply the carpet inside the vehicle do the same with the walls too and your car will not rattle at all
@Roger Hayden , ive been in construction for many years also and have used flashing tape for its intended purposes and as a deadener. Asphalt/rubberized asphalt flashing tape is not forever, niether is butyl, but there is a difference. Rubberized asphalt flashing tape does "ooze". Especially when placed on metal. It works fine for its intended purpose, though.
Butyl is the newer improved version of asphalt based flashing tapes. As in asphalt tapes do not have as great of performance or life as many want to believe.
Since we dont know the thickness of Useal lets make a safe assumption of 50mil (a common thickness for sound deadener).
The 6"x25' roll is about $17 and covers 12.5sqft.
Amazon, silness deaedner, 50mil at 23sqft is about $30.
Silness is butyl and is pretty much the same price.
Why wouldnt you use the product that was developed to replace the asphalt one?
Tweaker life.
I can't find this what to do any idea pllzz
Sameer Salman there are two or three brands that you can use from Home Depot or Lowe's
U knw I'm still searching but still didn't find
Peel and Seal
hey I did a small review of my peel n seal after a year check me out... it's all hanging tough and doing the job for a budget..
great video 2
Yeah man I'll have to check it out thanks for watching
how many rolls for all the doors?
It only took me a little over half a roll per door, that is putting 2 to 3 layers on
Mendozahtc fifteen rolls for a compact door.
StinkyArmpit Bass still holding up? Thinking about doing this over the weekend.... throwing some in my doors/hatch/roof... would rather spend $120 and get most of it done... budget build, not competing...
How and with what could I remove this?? Please help awful smell after install
Figure it out, please post an picture or video of the work
useed this same brand melts and falls off mess mess mess
sound video. your nose was whistling the whole time
haha, nice
Jajaja bullshit
Your squeaky ass nose is driving me crazy in this video
time well wasted on that crap... $16/roll for a reason. many applications out there showing this crap fail. for a sec, you sounded like you know what your talking about, then you show ur mickeymouse work. lmao!
Angel Garcia Well, it worked, it's insulated, I can do it myself for free, i've had zero issues with it and you're right it is affordable. Thanks for your opinion.
StinkyArmpit Bass is your SUV plasti diped
Dylan Webb it is, blacked oht
Out
Bla bla bla nothing else
