Info on sound deadening.

Dave D,did you use this? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...d-seel-great-sound-dampening-material.711889/ I did going on three years ago on the roof of my '54 Ford sedan it is still holding with no issues and you don't know hot in Florida compared to Phoenix summers with 110 + degree days,you cannot put your hand on the roof for more than a few seconds when it's that hot unless you want to check into a burn unit.I did prep mine by cleaning it thoroughly wiping it down with Brake-Kleen and applying a coat of Rustoleum aluminum before putting on the product.There is a sealing tape for the seams I reference to later in this link and pictures of it installed. It also helped to dampen the sound of the electric fuel pump mounted by the tank.

I've tried a bunch of the "cost savings" products and always go back to DynaMat. More money? Perhaps, but I've never had to re-do a job with their products, a claim I can't make with the other brands.
Ditto on that. Dynamat may cost more but it works great. Anyone seen any auto restoration shows on TV where they use any but Dynamat? There must be a reason why they don't go to Lowes or Home Depot!
 
Maybe because TV shows are getting it for free for mentioning it during the program. Prime time TV ads are probably pretty pricy. Just sayin.
 
I used a combo of Fatmat and Peel & Seal. The Fatmat for the large sheets and Peel & Seal for the smaller stuff. Happy with my choice.
