Haunz's cheap @ss sound deadening solution
I wanted some serious sound deadening, as my whole trunk is now a large box for 2 15's. I made a visit to the hardware store and bought a 4l can of 'roof glue' which is very similar in consistancy to spray on deadening...
Make sure you look for the stuff that will dry hard... lol...
Anyway... I used a combo of this crap and roofing felt, which was difficult to get to stick around bends, but still effective if you cut it and apply it the right way.....
Major downsides were that some heavy layers of this chit takes some time to dry (days)... a thin layer will dry within an hour, though...
(I used 3layers, approx 5mm thick)
This stuff is also really friggn messy... but no worse then spray on deadening IMO....
Major benifit of this stuff is that you could do a whole car for like $50...
You can also apply ducting insulation (tinfoil bubble wrap) if you want an absorber....

I haven't heard the install yet, as I don't even have my amp racks in yet. (I Should probably be doing that right now)
but... I've used dynamatt before, and have saw deadening put into a few other cars... I'd say one good layer of this stuff would have the same coverage as any other matt...
I should also mention that in the future I'm going to try contact cement instead of the tar adhesive with the roofing felt... It will probably have better adhesion around bends and a much faster drying time....

Looks like the felt weights about .12 lb's per sq. foot... I'm sure with the tar adhesive would double that...
I used 4L can of adhesive w/ 3layers of felt for most of my trunk. I'll see if I can figure out what the adhesive weighs and how many sq. feet it did...

^ I saw a guys car last summer with blueshield roofing membrane in his trunk and it was curling up at the edges and the plastic sheeting doesn't bend well and hold corners. It's meant to stay flat (like a roof) and so it doesn't seem to mold well.
I wouldn't use it.
Is <$140 delivered to your door from b-quiet too much for 35sqft of good quality brown bread?
