Toucan Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Has anyone had any experiences with aftermarket sound deadening? I would like to put some extra stuff on the inside of my firewall to block out a bit more of the engine noise. I know theres lots of stuff that car audio people use; Brownbread Fusion stuff Bostik Tiles Dynamatt Would any of these do or is there a more ruggered way of doing it that would suit a firewall better? Has anyone tried to sound deaden their escort before? Any comments appreciated. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datsunboy Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I used the bostik tiles on the floor and in the boot of my 1600.....made a huge difference in the sound. it all adds up to be a lot of extra wieght tho....my boot lid only just stays open now....cause it's so heavy from the sound deadning. It should be fine for the inside of your firewall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toucan Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 How thick are the bostik tiles and where can I find them? Any other cheaper ways that people know of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jinx Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I've heard of a few people using a product made by 3M. It's supposed to be very good, but I don't know where to get it from... It's a multi layer mat that uses a thin layer of metal on one side - that's all I can remember though sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDave Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 ear plugs are pretty cheap?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNR Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 ear plugs block all sound, sound deadening blokes the annoying sound....eg, rattles, road noise. Im guessin u already knew that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
