Second Skin Rep Jon Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Depends on the vehicle, what you are waning to accomplish, etc. etc. So lets start out with a few questions. 1. What is the vehicle? 2. What are your goals (SQ, SPL. reduce noise, kill rattles, prevent flex, etc.)? 3. Budget (not necessary, but it helps).? Quote Have a question about Second Skin? E-Mail me!

Leo1103 Posted May 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) its a 2002 honda crv, the goal is to slowly get an nice system going, and to stop flex. Budget would be around $400 to $500. Edited May 21, 2012 by Leo1103 Quote 2002 Honda CR-VAlpine 9887My BuildRebuilding...

Second Skin Rep Jon Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) I would suggest 20 sq. ft. of material on the low end and 40 sq. ft. on the high end. And here is the break down: Front doors measure roughly 7.2 sq. ft. - 25% coverage = 1.8 sq. ft. of material per door. Rear doors measure roughly 6.2 sq. ft. - 25% coverage = 1.55 sq. ft. of material per door. Rear quarter panel measures roughly 4 sq. ft. - 25% coverage = 1 sq. ft. of material. Rear tailgate/hatch measures roughly 8.8 sq. ft. - 25% coverage = 2.2 sq. ft. of material. Roof measures approximately 20 sq. ft. (this is accounting for a sun/moonroof) - 25% coverage = 5 sq. ft. of material. Floor measures approximately 40 sq. ft. - 25% coverage = 10 sq. ft. of material All totaled up you're looking at about 25 sq. ft. to achieve about 25% coverage on each of those panels. Flex is more difficult to combat because it's a different force (air pressure), so the best way is to reinforce the panel (most cases the roof) with either wood or metal bracing. OR you can go with 100% coverage with a high quality vibration damping mat like Damp Pro or Alpha Damp and create somewhat of a barrier. So all said and done, I would probably go with a Bulk Pack of Damp Pro as that will give you plenty to work with. In addition to that, I would get four-six sheets of OverKill to install behind the trim on the doors and rear hatch to prevent and stop rattles. Hope that helps, Edited May 21, 2012 by Second Skin Rep Jon spelling eludes me sometimes... Quote Have a question about Second Skin? E-Mail me!

CstrokerV Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Yeah i have a rav4 about the same size i used a sheet of damplifier in each section in between the bracing on the roof and it made a huge difference no more noise from the roof i was shocked on how much of a difference it made subs sound better too .. next will be my doors after i get in the mood to yank the fatmat off lol Quote my build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/142505-small-build-log-4-dc-lvl3-10s-tl-update-link-to-rebuild/ http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/154258-rebuild-6-lvl3-12s-update-small-video-nothing-spectacular/ new build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/188181-03-trailblazer-slow-build-8-dc-lvl3-12-m1-motor-m2-parts/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
