corona_jeff Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 Well after fighting the cold, and making plans for a system rebuild I finally stripped the truck. I put things off as long as possable because I knew I needed to pull out another companies deadening. I knew it would be a pain and take come work. Well to my suprise this is what I saw once I pulled the headliner down. FAIL!! All it took was a few mins pulling and it was out. Well after comparing this to the Alpha I have to say, the alpha is by far the best I have seen or used. The foil is insane! After the first piece installed I could already tell the difference done to the roof. As I know the front half takes the most abuse I double layered that area. I know its probably don't need that much, but I don't wanna take the change again cause its a pain to get it out. ALPHA DONE Quote
Second Skin Rep Jon Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 Awesome! Have any issues installing it due to the foil thickness, it being cold, etc.? Quote Have a question about Second Skin? E-Mail me!
corona_jeff Posted January 23, 2012 Author Report Posted January 23, 2012 Jon, nope. But i did buy a nice ss roller a few months back. With that it was easy. I also hit the sticky side with a hair dry to, dunno if that helped any Quote
Second Skin Rep Jon Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 It probably would had stuck just fine but It never hurts when installing it in temps hovering around freezing. Thanks for the review, can't wait to see/hear what the the results are. Quote Have a question about Second Skin? E-Mail me!
POPLERO Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) Nice review! I personally have *not tryed many deadeners but want to do the headliner once and only once, what range of temp does your vehicles roof see? I would like to know if this would be one of the better choices not only for the sound deadening but for adhesion durin various temps. I see anywhere from 120 to 30 degrees.
