What does everyone use to repair floor tar sound deadening material. I have some popping up very little rust the cause of course. I am removing a small amount to good sound completely rust free areas and want to restore that to like new appearance. Any suggestions?

This is an interesting topic! I found some LASD online, reasonably priced. Spectum by Second Skin and other products. Applied by spray, roller or brush to 40 mils in two coats. Can be laid down at the interior or as undercoating. Thinking to use it as undercoating on the pan and apply the AA mats inside for additional protection and an original look.
Input? |

QUOTE(JeffBowlsby @ Dec 22 2022, 01:13 PM)  This is an interesting topic! I found some LASD online, reasonably priced. Spectum by Second Skin and other products.

Thinking to use it as undercoating on the pan and apply the AA mats inside for additional protection and an original look. Input? Like the Lizzard skin above it won’t be as effective as modern OEM LASD that is usually 2-4mm thick and then it is baked in the paint ovens where it hardens. OEM LASD usually also has some “structure” like ribs or garden rows that add stiffness vs a flat uniform coating. Even the orientation of the ribs has an effect on noise reduction. Complicated subject where testing with data acquisition and software is used to determine the problem, what’s causing it, and developing a cost efffective solution. Look for sound reduction data on the products your considering. If there is no data - then consider it skillful marketing. |
