RooTxBeeR Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 So I have been in contact with the second skin rep Jon, and all I have to say is I love the customer service. I had talked to him about getting samples of the new alpha damp, which he sent me along with their other 2 damplifier materials, and their competitors. Great service and talking skills, very polite and easy to talk to. I haven't had anytime yet to actually apply them, but from the looks, I can say easily that second skin materials are generaly thinner than others, and easily Alpha damp is the thinnest. All of the damping material I received has relatively the same stiffness in regards to bending. That is my little .02 on the physical aspects of the materials. Also how great they are with people, that are not even customers yet, I can say that I really hope Alpha damp stays on the market because I will easily buy that to deaden my car.

Maticus Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 I do believe he meant thinnest, but most effective. Here is Alpha Damp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That1Kid Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 Ya, I got a sample pack from Jon as well. Stuff is killer. Quote -98' Ford Expedition (Rest in Peace) -AVH-P3300BT -Crescendo BC5500 -4 18" DC m2 Level 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Second Skin Rep Jon Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) Go me! You were just on the tail end of me sending out samples so I was really glad I was able to help you out. Alpha Damp is right in between Damplifier and Damplifier Pro. Damplifier - 40 mils Alpha Damp - 60 mils Damplifier Pro - 80mils Our products fall in between a lot of the competitions in terms of thickness. Take the industry's standard Dynamat Xtreme for instance, it's 67 mils ±, that makes it thicker than two of our products. But total thickness isn't the deciding factor. Thickness and stiffness of the constraining layer has a lot to do with how the product performs. The foil on Damplifier is 6.5 mils, which is a good 2.5 mils thicker than Dynamat Xtreme's containing layer. This is how our baseline product is able to perform as well as and even better than most other 60-70 mil products. Go science! So Mr. RooTxBeeR's comment of our products being thinner is actually true. Edited October 18, 2011 by Second Skin Rep Jon Quote Have a question about Second Skin? E-Mail me!

Maticus Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 On a side note Jon- About the lost sample pack- I had a talk with my mail carrier and he had been putting MY mail in the wrong mail box! I was soo infuriated, but the sample pack was indeed in there, so if you want me to return the second one you sent I will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
