> 3 dayIve used other products before - Dynamat, second skin, etc. They worked well, but were $$. This product is cheaper, perhaps just slightly less thick - though, not by much. It also sticks well and seems to quiet things down quiet a bit. Frankly, you can almost double it up and stay under the price of the other leading brands. I would suggest wearing gloves. The adhesive doesnt come off, but the material will slice your hands up - like paper cuts. Not a lot of fun. Aside from that minor gripe, the product really is a great value!

> 3 daySeems like it works. Did not check with a meter before or after but I feel as if the difference is somewhat minimal. I decided to buy and install this stuff on a Class C RV cab because of the intense amount of road noise. I realize that an RV is a moving house on wheels and will make all kinds of noise, but I really couldnt have a conversation with my wife when driving without yelling or hear the radio. I found killmat and decided to tear everything out and install these mats on doors and floors. I already had heat/sound resistant material in the doghouse from a previous install and do NOT recommend using this stuff in that heat. Post install drive seems like it reduced noise about 15 to 20 percent. Enough to have a conversation without yelling. My wife and kids say that they can tell the difference but Im a little more critical of my work. I also swapped out the crappy ford speakers with better speakers and can hear the radio fairly clearly. The difference is NOT night and day...it is more like night and early morning. It works but this is still an RV. It may work better in a regular vehicle. Was it worth all of my sweat to install...yeah, I think so.

> 3 dayAdhesion and sound deadening are good for 50 mil. The sheets are large, which makes it harder to manage, especially if there are alot of curvature areas in vehicle.

> 3 dayAbsolutely awesome. I used these in my 67 Camaro (350 cid with stock dual exhaust manifolds and exhaust system). Very easy to install (place mat down for fitting), applies easily (use a roller), sticks very well. The noise reduction is incredible. You can hear the engine, but significant reduction in road and exhaust noise. Conversation volume is at normal level. My buddy made a phone call and was able to speak at normal levels and no issues hearing conversation. It’s like riding in a new car. Very happy with purchase. Great product and great price compared to other sound deadening materials.

> 3 dayWorks well, within its limitations. Its not going to turn your 90s tin can car into a modern lexus, but it was a pleasant change in my 2012 Miata, making everything sound more solid, the stereo sounds better, and marginally less road noise. Make sure to get the application roller tool, as its essential for proper application. One note, you dont need to entirely cover panels. One sheet or a large square on a panel will work 90% as well as covering the whole panel. The purpose of this is to dampen vibrations. It is not sound deadening mat, despite being labeled as such. For proper sound deadening you need something to isolate the sound. This is usually closed cell foam, or something like carpet padding.

> 3 dayBest bang for your buck. At a fraction of the cost of name-brand sound mat, this is absolutely unbeatable. I appplied liberal coverage (~80%) in my daily driven Nissan Juke, and the difference is definitely noticeable. Drastic improvement in sound quality inside, and a pretty significant reduction in noise heard outside. I also applied some matting to the floorboards, door, and roof skins on my G35 which really only sees track days. I’ve had it in my G35 for several years now, and have seen no signs of decreasing adhesion. Bottom line: don’t spend more for a product that isn’t really all that much better, when you can have a comparable alternative at a fraction of the cost.

> 3 dayGirlfriend and are I doing a mild camper build in our 06 E350. Were not going to really be living in it and most trips will just be 1-3 day ventures or for concerts. I also have everything easily removable so I can still use it to haul stuff. With all that I couldnt really be bothered for the 80mil for the large price difference. This does a great job. Its also incredibly easy to work with to cut around corners. We also used it to go over holes in the sheet metal on the sides after we packed them with insulation. The floor in the van has the kilmat down first then furring strips to balance the ribs with the foam board insulation then the plywood base to vinyl. With so much else going on top - the 50mil is the perfect thickness in my opinion for a van floor if thats your purpose with it. If you have the extra money and are super concerned with outside noise then Im sure the 80mil is just as nice to work with.

> 3 dayHave used these on multiple vehicles and am very happy with the quality and price point. They stick very well! I recommend getting a set of rollers to really put some pressure when installing. I lined my trunk/hatch area in my 07 Honda Fit and noticed it was quieter (even with the wind noise Fits are know for:) I follow it up with some sound deadening mat. Very happy with this product! Would and have bought again!

> 3 dayMy 2016 GMC Yukon XL has over 153K miles and was starting to exhibit a lot of unwanted creaks, rattles, and other unwanted noises. I applied about 10 sheets to the floor pan in the rear cargo area and under the second and third row seats and WOW, what a difference!! It tamed almost all of the rattles and quieted the ride overall. Im going to order another box or two and get to work on my Transit van (350HD,) 2014 Prius, and 2019 Tesla Model 3 next! Absolutely 1000% recommended!!
