I purchased a couple rolls of Farman adhesive backed sound material with the aluminum foil top. Curious what everybody’s thoughts are for using this in the interior, on the floors and behind the back panel.
Thinking simply roll/press it down with a roller and then tape the seams. Are there other ways or material that people prefer to use as I keep thinking of the moisture that at some point will likely get under the sound insulation material even if I tape it. FYI, I did replace the floors then coated entire floor top and bottom with Por15, followed up with paint so I’m starting with a very nice surface. I know I can put this down and will be fine for probably at least 15 or 20 years but I would like to think I could make it last longer so the next guy won’t have to worry about rust. Like to know what others have done and what their experiences are. ![]() ![]() |

There have been some very detailed discussions and great technical information courtesy of some of the members here that are actually in the car manufacturing business. As ever it depends what you’re going for, but the single biggest tip I could offer is don’t feel like you have to cover every inch of the panel to achieve a significant reduction in NVH.
Some adhesive that gets pressed onto the floorboards will go along way, it’s the rear firewall that arguably needs the most attention. Keep in mind that a lot of Road in engine noise will make its way into the cockpit no matter how well insulated the firewall is due to the design of the car. |
