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?

You can get pretty good decibel meter apps for phones now. It would be very interesting to see results for various treatments, particularly if some care was taken with the experiment design.
I don’t have a running car at the moment, so I’m no help. |

QUOTE(zoomCat @ Dec 26 2022, 10:12 AM)  You can get pretty good decibel meter apps for phones now. It would be very interesting to see results for various treatments, particularly if some care was taken with the experiment design. I don’t have a running car at the moment, so I’m no help. I tried several of those apps and finally bought a decibel meter after getting weird results from the phone. It seems we are limited by the sensitivity range of the mics on phones. The phone would read too loud or too quiet compared with the meter over various frequencies and only agreed in a relatively narrow band. I gave up on trusting the phone as a decibel meter. This was an android phone. Not sure if iPhones do any better. |
