    Like many others: no before and after sound comparison. Which is the foremost reason I am looking for such videos. But I like the workspace :) nevermind, moving onto the next one hoping for some sound comparison.

    • @carbuilders1
      @carbuilders1  5 років тому +1

      Thank you John. We often put sound comparisons in our install videos. However, in our efforts to be totally transparent, we have always felt compromised when doing this. There are so many variables in trying to give an accurate decibel analysis. The vehicle and its age, the model, the motor, modifications, tyres, road, weather, decibel frequency tested.. the list goes on. Please be careful when presented with decibel before and afters. We will have videos out shortly where we test each material (for sound or heat) in controlled situations.
      Good luck in your search 😎👍

      @@carbuilders1 make a lab size sound proof box with two halfs with the material placed in the center. Sound one side, meter the other. Only change the material. Bingo will see material comparison. Just need a real decibal meter, A exhaust shop will have one to borrow or tell you where to source one. Then all you need is sound thats repeatable. A car head unit with speaker and sub would give a good repeatable sound across the Sound spectrum.
      Sorry but a sound proofing company without even a real decibel meter is laughable 🤦‍♂️

    I helped to install a headliner in my brothers truck, and I used a monokote iron for rc airplane wings, controll surfaces, and fuselage to get the roll on headliner with adhesive to form into the creases and around contoura. The iron comes with cloth covers to use while ironing to prevent Burns and the iron does not use steam. It only uses heat. It seems like on this material that type iron would work well to install the bonet material also.

    Hi. The product looks awesome.
    Although two questions. How good this will be in long run, as standalone under hood insulation? I am planning to replace worn out foam insulation in my w124 and want a standalone product that is not foam like the oe , as with time it tends to crack and fall in small pieces inside bay.
    Secondly the goal is to mainly reduce diesel clatter noise both inside and outside of car.
    Thanks

    • @carbuilders1
      @carbuilders1  3 роки тому +1

      Thank you. Yes, Dynamat (or our Sound Deadener) primary purpose is to stop panel vibration. It will make a very small difference with heat but not significant and you will want to cover it and not expose it to extreme temperatures in the engine bay. If you don't have the factory cover over it you could look at something like www.carbuilders.com.au/premium-under-bonnet or if heat is a big issue, a more extreme treatment would be www.carbuilders.com.au/peel-stick-heat-shield 👍

    • @carbuilders1
      @carbuilders1  4 роки тому

      Making templates can be dangerous as it is hard to account for rises and falls in the surface which change the amount of material required (in the video we only used it to make a rough oversized guide). If you lay the sheet on the bonnet/hood first and allow it to be evenly oversided. Then reveal some of the backing on one of the edges of the bonnet and continue from there to stick it down. You will have extra over each side that you will then blade off (careful not to score the paint- as in video) 👍

    • @carbuilders1
      @carbuilders1  5 років тому

      Hi Mahi. There are cheaper foams that replace the factory underbonnet however, like the manufacturers version, the foam ends up failing and flaking. This product is a textile material, which is more durable. As you can see from the video, we wanted to manufacture a product that looked factory pressed however was able to be applied to a universal bonnet. We want a durable product that could withstand a high pressure hose and was fire retardant. The material is also a dense needle punched fabric, which will help reduce heat transfer and filter sound waves.

These pads break down over time, 20 years etc and people find them hard or expensive to replace and this is when this product is used. They are also a durable-faced product so they have advantages there over many OEM versions.

    Insufficient method to address engine noise although its a critical Step 1 in reducing engine noise intrusion.
    The most IMPORTANT area giving the BIGGEST reduction in engine noise intrusion (besides firewall) is the area/narrow gap behind your door hinges.
    KIA and Hyundai hv become impressively quieter due to focus on this critical area. Look at the Hyundai Santa Fe..and you’ll see “something” there put by the manufacturers.
    In contrast, look at the Merc A Class (noisy engine noise and loads of tyre noise). There is NOTHING there (when u open driver door and peep behind the door hinges) except a thin black plastic cover.
    Look at the narrow area BEHIND your upper and lower door hinges. Thats where engine noise and tyre noise penetrate into the cabin. Its actually a hollow space that leads to the inside of the fender well cavity.
    Remove the wheel well liner.
    Stuff loads of waterproof, non fraying noise absorbent material into that empty area. Rolled up or folded up Thinsulate is best. In any non-Continental vehicles, treating this area produces a significantly impressive reduction in engine and tyre noise WITHOUT doing anything else.
