You talking about B-quiet Ultimate? or normal B-quiet?... that stuff is not much cheaper then heavier Damplifier (30%more weight and thicker foil for $180 or so for 40sqft where B-quet comes to $160 per 50sqft - by weight Damplifier is cheaper).... I was asking about e-Dead and similar which are low on butyl content.... they are like $60 for 50sqft....
i dont know about e-dead, never heard of it.

(even Ant from SS will tell you that)
I'm with Yuli on this one... I've used B-Quiet Ultimate in my competition car and am really happy with it!

I do want to stop the rattles but i don't want to have big problems with the deadner falling off, or leaking like some people said it has happened with deadners made mostly out of asphalt (I may as well buy roofing mat at home depot, which is basically the same thing....) I know I'm being repetitive here but i want to be 100% sure that the stupid deadner wont do like that.....

like father Yuli stated, the test on that site were mute. if you read it the first thing you would have noted was the heat tests were done in a oven. when the hell you gonna drive you car into an over????
some are better than others, some dont work at all. most expensive ones are not worth the money as they do the same job as their cheaper counter parts...
i have heard of edead being good. keep in mind i read this on the web, no actual experiance of my own! brownbread, b-quiet (both), these are the ones you will find are being used the most (including me) and with no problem at all. the only thing important about the install is to roll the material after and to clean the surface before. i used mineral spirits to the cleaning, its a good degreaser and leaves no film behind..
good luck

^ any idea how hot exterior metal pannels can get? I don't think you do. I am not sure myself about actual temperature but an oven seems, to me, like a good way to get metal to be to hot to keep your hand on like my metal panels get some times.
B-quiet both versions are good. It is all of those roofing materials that get bad reps for peeling off and smelling bad. Edead also had at some point complaints about peeling off.

B-Quiet (and previous to that Brown Bread) is what I have used for years and I have not experienced one issue with the material at all. I am in a really wet climate for half the year and sun for the other half, I see more temperature extremes than most parts of Canada save for gripping cold of -20 or so on a prolonged basis. I would go the B-Quiet route, if this ends up being the route for you to go, drop me a PM for a quote.
