yurvalentine Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Get a roller or seven, and a heat gun. It takes some work but I think it'll be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunt_az Posted January 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 There is the Vibraflex 160 and 80 mil. Per mass loaded deadeners you will not find a product other than wood that will stop a panel from vibration/flex. You can look on the Ampere website to get the loss factor damping capabilities of the product. Does it take a heat gun? Yes. Is it a longer process to use Vibraflex? Yes. Will you get better results from a butyl deadener? No. The hotter you get Vibraflex the more stiff it becomes once it hardens due to the mass loaded plastic in the deadener.Awesome. Thank you for your input.. So in other words Im going to hate the shit after I work my fat ass arms to death trying to apply it to my room lol. but will be happy with the results You realize who Andrew2944r is right? YES I DO... BUT BOTTOM LINE IS IM NOT MAKING MY DECISION OFF OF WHAT HE SAID, IM DOING IT OFF OF EVERYTHING I HAVE READ AND SEEN 2001 Ford Expedition 2 SA 12's Crescendo 2000 M.E.C.A. 141.4 DB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, I almost thought I was the only one thinking this barely has any dampening capabilities. Hardened plastic=will not absorb vibrations=no dampening=no deadener... Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It strengthens the structure to where it will not vibrate. Less dampening from my testing = more dBs due to not absorbing the subwoofers moving energy.

SO WITH YOUR TESTING HAVE YOU FOUND OUT IS IT BETTER TO HEAT UP THE STICKY SIDE OR THE TOP SIDE?

GOING TO BE USING A HEAT GUN Before applying you heat up the top side (non sticky side) which will make the vibraflex slightly softer and malleable, once it cools off it gets hard and rigid again.
