KILMAT 80 mil 36 sqft Car Sound Deadening Mat, Butyl Automotive Sound Deadener, Audio Noise Insulation and dampening

EXCELLENT PRODUCT AND NO SMELL AT ALL.

Decent for what it is…. Not as thick as 80mil I believe but it does the trick. If you do 2 to 3 layers you will be sold just 1 layer might not do it for a big audio build.

Got this to reduce trunk vibrations from bass. Wasnt expecting it to cancel it completely. I was surprised with how well it actually did though. After reading reviews of other more expensive products like Dmat and 2ndSkin. But this product also had good reciews as well so bit the bullet to save some cash and glad I did. I got enough to do my whole trunk and rear deck lid were my 6x9s are by the rear window and had 3 sheets left over. Thinking of getting another box so I can do all 4 of my door but would have a lot left ober after that. So thats still uo in the air but I am going to use whats left from the 1st box on certain rattle poins on the doors for sure. If Youre up in the air about getting this or the more expensive brands just go for it. I know people that have each if the 2 high end brand I for mentioned and Killmat does just as good of a job for about half the price.

The price is right and its easy to apply once youve gained access to the place you want to install. Cuts easily with house hold scissors. The more you apply to a panel the better it works. You need at least 25% of the open panel to be effective. My goal was a minimum of 60% and it worked nicely and finished with some close cell foam in the rest of the panel. I did 100% of my spare tire well in the trunk. Now I hardly hear anything from the area. It can be a little addictive once youve discovered how and where it works best. I plan to do the entire floor (2nd greatest source of noise intrusion into the car) and then the roof panel (pain in the arse) to close out the project. Total cost estimate will be just over $350 to complete a 2012 Toyota Camry LE Hybrid. Keep in mind I require a lot more material for this car as it has the very minimum installed to reduce weight. Ill be introducing 85 lbs of material and a full size space and tool kit (additional 20 lbs) to this hybrid vehicle and it will effect the mpg. The car is usually empty during daily 80 mile city/highway commuting and averages approximately 38 mpg with the eco turned mode off.

I’ll start by mentioning that I’m a professional car audio installer with multiple awards at an international level. I’m not some kid working on his bucket in his parents garage. I first noticed that this material seemed thinner than the claimed 80 mil. So I put a set of digital calipers on it and the mat is closer to 70 mil. Secondly the adhesive backing was less effective than what other products I had worked with the past. But what prompted my return was the fact that unless I applied 3-4 layers the product was ineffective. Check the weight of this product compared to 36 sq ft of a comparable product. You’ll see that Kilmat weighs almost half of what any quality mat weighs. Very misleading. There are plenty of other quality alternatives to Dynamat on the market. Unfortunately this is not one of them…

Works as advertised!

It’s cut into lots of sheets. It’s easy to install if you lay it in the sun. I don’t have any oil/asphalt smell in the truck. ProjectTwin has great videos on how to install this stuff. I’d recommend watching them and getting MLV sound deadening material to accompany this. It is my next step.

This product is very easy to used and performs as advertised

There are other similar products that may (or may not) work better at a greater expense. For my use case, with temperature variations and budget constraints, this was the best option. The only thing I might change would be getting thicker mat, but the sound suppression with this thickness is a dramatic improvement. My old F350 creaks and rattles still, but this sound mat keeps most of the noise from the cab and improves the quality of conversations I hold while driving. I would buy it again, and will, for any future vehicle of mine

Easy to apply and I will recommend it to anyone it does the job and no more rattle thank you kilmat mp
