deadener is just for rattles but also helps a lot with sound quality. put some on your front doors and the front half of your roof and you will hear the difference.

u dont have to hit 150 to rattle ...

No, I'm saying I am currently hitting 150 and would only need deadener if things start rattling from the abuse. And yes, I've heard the guys with cars that rattle like rocks in a tin can on probably less than 140.

150 with no rattle ... thats interesting ....

sometimes Loud is NOT pretty

Sounds like its safe to go ahead and bend that ass over.

Constraint Layer Dampers do not just remove "rattles". It reduces panel resonance. A rattle is where 2 pieces tough/rub/click/slap together. Road noise and other noise is transmitted through the sheetmetal that you don't even realize.

My brand new truck didn't have any "rattles", but applying a layer of damp pro sure made a difference.

It took road noise from a SHSHSH down to a shshshsh.

Now my audio has less to compete with.

Im doing my second skin in my trunk and just wander if i can put it like outside the guns on hood or its not good when it gets wet?

I'm not sure what you mean by "outside the guns on hood". Rollin with a few AK's strapped on the hood or something? But I believe Jon said that as long as the paper backing is still there and stuck to it, and the material itself is a little pudgy/sticky, should be good to go.

I wouldn't want to put it where water could get to it. Think it's main purpose is to be hidden and in a sense, weather protected. Deal with the heat and cold and such but not tsunamis and all. So if I'm even understanding "gums" rather than "guns"... lmfao, I would just keep it under panels and/or liners as it's pretty much intended.
