jakebrake86 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I found some stuff on eBay called Rattle Trap, I believe. It's about half the price of Dynamat. Has anybody used it?

storkmack Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I used some generic stuff from J.C Whitney. It did ok, but not as good as I thought It should have. There are a few possible R-model projects coming my way in the near future. Maybe I should be looking into Rattle Trap.

d427 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 If you can get the stuff from 3m or Kent. I work as a professional painter and that is what we put back in Audis and Porsches. seems to be as good as Dynamat. Also a product called lizard skin on your floors I have heard is excellent for heat and noise but I bekieve it is a thick coating.

Lmackattack Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I used asphalt sticky back sheets on the whole inside of my RS700L cab. Made a huge improvement in sound reduction. I can't comment on heat reduction but it cut the vibration noise level down pretty good.

Maddog13407 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I used the JC Whitney stuff in my B model. put two layers in. probably should have just bought the good stuff Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32592-dynamat-vs-the-cheap-stuff/#findComment-203488 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsb502 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Ive used Dynamat in two trucks and a car, awesome stuff, made my 84 RW as quiet inside as my 04 Granite Im kinda the name brand guy I guess, if someone else is making it at a cheaper price its probably a cheaper product and things like that I only want to do once. Now if were talking something like spray paint for steel targets in the back yard thats the .99 cent spray paint, but for things that require a lot of effort I buy the expensive stuff.

HarryS Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I just finished doing the entire cab including the inside doors with Dynamat Extreme. It is easy to work with but as mentioned more expensive. I got mine from Summit Racing for about $3 something a sq ft. It took 72 sq ft to cover everything but the inside firewall. The factory padding had already been installed along with all the wiring, cables, etc. It sure has a solid sound when thumping. Hope to do a road test in the next couple of days.

keg1 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I got some at Summit but then I got on Amazon and found it a lot cheaper Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32592-dynamat-vs-the-cheap-stuff/#findComment-203814 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I used Hushmat in my B model inside the entire cab and inside of doors. I can't compare it with Dynamat as I have never used it. It was easy to apply. Just peel and stick. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32592-dynamat-vs-the-cheap-stuff/#findComment-205830 Share on other sites More sharing options...
