Changed back to thick traditional underfelt just sits better over all. Also easy to get from my suppliers and used on a bunch of other things. Either works just as fine. What about those thick grey shifting blankets, would they be any good? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They might have a bit more movement in them so not that stable/rigid. If you were to ask me what I would actually recommend, i would say go buy some from an upholstery shop. I sell it for $50 a meter at 1.8 wide. You won't need 2 meters for a car or 1.6 for a ute, pay cash for a peace the guy has had under the bench and get it a bit cheaper. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoKer 18,635 Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 A friend just bought this up in another forums I am on (NZ) https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-stereos/other/listing-2732507824.htm?rsqid=e9f13944b2fa48bbaae154fbe4324020-002 Quote PET & PP Quality Sound Deadener / Deadening (Self-adhesive) 80cm x 50cm $8 How would something like this compare do you reckon? other than the perceived 'mass' of it vs KilMat Or do I just recommend Kilmat? I think its for his track dedicated Car (fast Street car) thoughts? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tortron 65,778 Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 track car? get some fitted ear plugs and save the weight 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bling 21,553 Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 Yeah unless they like the idea of a padded cell spec track car... At least the killmat doesn't look like you're a frequent flyer at craft stores. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RUNAMUCK 29,823 Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 That would probably do the job of underlay quite nicely. And at that price it's worth a shot. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bananaman 194 Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 My car has extensive sound deadening as I wanted something a little quieter but still fun to drive. A combination of dynamat and roadkill were used but the results amazing Look forward to hearing how these other products perform. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nzstato 2,784 Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 Have just ordered some kilmat. Any advice on some additional undercarpet insulator? Pref not underfelt as it may get wet, options for a sticky backed foam? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pref not underfelt as it may get wet, options for a sticky backed foam? I just came back inside after doing the back of my commer van. I opted for the usual underlay and shag carpet over sound matting. Reason being it is easy enough to drag out and dry if it gets wet. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
