Yeah, if you're shooting for 100% coverage, 60 sq. ft. will be eaten up rather quickly. For example, each door can use around 8+ sq. ft., so that right there is a little more than half of that 60 sq. ft.. -
Because of how amazing these deals are, they will only be available for a short amount of time. So for the first deal (Damp or Damp Pro Bulk Packs), the discount code will be valid from 12:00AM to 12:30AM. At 12:31AM, that code will expire and the next deal will begin, and so on for all five deals we have planned. If you have to work during this time period, give someone your credit card and have them order it for ya or come in 5 minutes late to get your order in. Sounds good! I think there will be a bit of everything for everyone this time around. And the deals are truly awesome!

03 explorer doors

For nearly 100% coverage, 40-60 sq. ft.. Just to kill panel resonance (25%), 20 sq. ft. would do. -
Peel & Seal is made my MFM. U-Seal is just another form of roofing product. Same construction. It may seem like it would come out cheaper, but 99% of the time it's not. Simply put, I was not comparing price per square foot, but rather the price per square foot to achieve the same results. You need 100%+ coverage with a product like Peel & Seal, but only 25% coverage with a CLD to get the same result. So let's take your pricing and compare. 12 sq. ft. of Peal & Seal ran you $12. With that amount you were able to treat 12 square feet which equals... well a buck a square foot. Say you want to treat your entire car which totals 80 square feet of surface area. At $1 a square foot, it's going to cost you $80 to treat 80 sq. ft. Pretty simple. Now lets take Damplifier for instance. 20 sq. ft. of Damplifier will run you about $76 (plus or minus any sort of discount). Since only a quarter of the amount of Damplifier is needed (a 6" x 6" square per square foot) to achieve the same OR better results as the P&S, that 20 sq. ft. of Damplifier will be able to treat the entire 80 sq. ft. you are wanting to accomplish. If we break that down to the price per square foot... $76 divided by 80 sq. ft. = $0.95 a square foot price. Virtually identical price wise... P&S is not cheaper. Now are you willing to take a chance on a product that was designed to be installed on a roof OR would you rather use a product that was designed from the ground up to be used in an automobiles? Not only that but is guaranteed not to peel, melt, or fall off AND works better. EDIT: Oh and 12 sq. ft. of a CLD, such as Damplifier, will run you about $55. But remember, that 12 sq. ft. of Damplifier is the equivalent to the performance of 48 sq. ft. of P&S. And if you broke that down to price per square foot, it would be about $1.15 a square foot... 15¢ more than P&S.

07 Maxima Trunk
Second Skin Rep Jon replied to sierra mist's topic in Second Skin Sound Deadening and Automotive Insulation!
Personally, when it comes to trunk lids I am super strategic in where I place the material. Why? There are a lot of areas that really don't need any deadener. For instance, areas that are double walled/reinforced don't need much, if any, deadener. Areas that are formed/curved resonate MUCH less than the flat areas, thus not needing much, if any, deadener. And the list goes on... So for your lid I would look at treating the highlighted areas first (see below). Then tap/hit the panel, play your music, etc. and see if the other areas need some deadening. Of course depending on what you are trying to achieve will also dictate how and where the product is applied. I say all of this not to make it more complicated, but to help insure you get the most out of and best coverage with the product. EDIT: And yes, I too approve of the Home Depot J-Roller. -
Our regular Damplifier will out perform most other companies EXTREME versions, so no worries there. And there isn't any need to go all balls to the wall and double or triple cover your doors. Hell in most cases complete coverage isn't even necessary. So 32 sq. ft. would be plenty for a 05 Monte Carlo's doors.

I just received word from Max that they received some more B-Stock Damplifier! This stuff is priced to move at $85 a pack! For those who don't know what b-stock is, it's just product that may be scuffed, damaged, or wrinkled but otherwise the same as the regular material. Again there is an extremely limited supply! First come first served! Get it before it is GONE! And don't forget about our Halloween Sale!
