![]() If there is one thing me and many other people don’t like, it’s the price. The company sells a lot of different versions of the product which are designed for different uses, but the most effective one is the Dynamat Extreme which they claim is 4 times more effective than the original version of Dynamat. It has an aluminum front and butyl back which not only excels at blocking sound, but is also extremely heat-resistant and even odorless.ĭynamat is also very easy to apply, which is not something that should be ignored, although most of the sound deadening materials used these days have an adhesive backing which makes the installation a very simple and quick process. Dynamatĭynamat is bar far the best-known sound deadening material for cars currently available on the market. There will be a list later in the post where I’ll tell you which my favorite materials are from a cost-efficiency standpoint. Let me say that all of the materials on this list are good, they will all help soundproof your car to some extent, but some are better than others, but probably more expensive. This concept is fairly simple to understand the thicker the material, the better it will block sound, in general. ![]() The materials used to soundproof a car tend to do a bit of both, but mostly they block the sound as well as reducing the vibrations generated by the thick metal sheets like doors, trunk floor, etc. Some materials are designed to block sound while some others are designed to absorb it.Īcoustic panels, like the ones you see in music studios, are designed to absorb sound. The two most common materials used are butyl- and asphalt- based sound deadeners.īutyl is a much better material since it’s odorless and can withstand higher temperatures, but there are some really good asphalt based ones, or even some sound deadeners which use a combination of both. There are a couple things you should be keeping in mind before buying The Type of Material What to look for in a Sound Deadening Material MASS LOADED VINYL VS DYNAMAT INSTALLThe sound absorbing materials you install in your car can do the exact same thing. These are used to absorb sound, which make the soundwaves die out quicker, making the room feel more silent. If you’ve ever been to a recording studio or rehearsal room, then you’ve probably seen the acoustic panels hanging on the walls. Most of the sound deadening materials used in cars do both they block sound and also absorb it. To absorb air-borne noise you will need to install some sound absorbing materials or anything that can make the soundwaves die out faster. In order to block sound, you are going to want to use some thick and dense material like Mass Loaded Vinyl or Soundproofing Floor Mats which should reduce outside noises and road noise transmission. ![]() There are materials which can be adhered to these metal panels, like on the inside of the doors, which will drastically reduce the rattling noises generated from these metal parts. This is because they reverberate which will not only transmit the noises, but even amplify them, just like a gong would. Usually the biggest culprit when it comes to any of the noises generated inside a car are the large and thin sheets of metal. The Three Ways to Stop Noise Transmissionīefore you start to soundproof your vehicle, you should know that noise will be generated in a few different ways, which means that you won’t be using just one material and one method, but rather a couple, depending on how the sound is transmitted. ![]()
