Sound Deadening - How many sq. Ft.
« on: February 17, 2010 - 05:38:18 PM »
Ok, Stock 1973 challenger. I am going to coat the floor in Fat Mat. How many feet would I need to just cover the floor. Also I should know how much for the roof.

Any info would be great. THANKS!!!

I probably have enough for you to do your whole car.  I was going to do the convertible and then thought it would be stupid . . . . its a convertible!   :screwy:

Give me a day to dig it out.  I bought it when our old Moderator Rev-it-Up was doing their challenger and bought the same stuff.  Then I never did anything with it.   :dunno:

Great THANKS YOU!!

Hey I was going to ask. Has anyone used Raamat?
The price is great and I have had a few chat rooms say it is really good.

I used a roll and a half (50 ft rolls)

I did not do the roof as many people said it's a no no. I used felt insulation on the roof, but did the floor, firewall and rear panel. It is easy if it is hot out, otherwise it is hard to work with. I put a ceramic heater in the car with me  and it worked slick

Why wouldn't that be a problem. I have asked to classic car builders I work with and they don't know why it would be an issue either.

I used B-Quiet insulation/sound deadener and the factory told me that doing the roof is ok so that is what I did. Sure keeps the car cooler in the hot hot sun. Used about 75ft of product. That is 1-1/2 rolls.
