hardhatharry Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 I'm about to work on the body work, fitting inner and outer rear wing; floor needs a couple of small holes and an outer door skin. Couple of question it looks like my floor has had an anti rust treatment in the footwells like a black rubbery type of paint anyone know what it is and should I use it for the whole inner floor as it will be carpeted. Has anyone fitted sound deadening between the inner and outer wings and doors, what can people recommend. What should I use under the carpets for insulation and sound deadening?

Badwolf Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 I have used 'Silentcoat' on mine. Many have used other products with success. Got my S/C off fleabay. Not cheap but works well for me. Used under carpets, on fuel tank and in the boot of my Spitfire, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badwolf Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 Got it from here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Silent-Coat-Sound-Deadening-Mat-2mm-Compact-10-Sheets-180x250mm-Pack-Car-Van/161282941044?hash=item258d366074:g:zMMAAOSwu-ter-~t I'm sure it was more expensive than that at the time. I think that Doug has used it too. Invest in one of those cheap plastic wallpaper overlap rollers and do it on a warm day. Not sure if I got one 10 pack or two. I will try and check. I have also seen it used under the bonnet (my plan in due course) and on the inside of the plastic/grp gearbox tunnel cover. Hope this helps. This is better under the seats than the insulation matting which I found pushed the carpet into the seat basket and stopped the seat from running back and forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul H Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 Another vote for Silent Coat though purchased using Amazon . They were the cheapest at the time . I also used an electric paint stripper https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/19032165055? Plus a wallpaper roller Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Twitchen Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 Two very threads on the same topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badwolf Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 Sorry but I can't find details of my order but I think it was 2 packs of 10. I still have a couple of sheets left and will certainly be trying it under the bonnet and inside the tunnel cover when I get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteH Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 Can I reboot this?. Anyone used "Noico". and if so with what results.? Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Looks exactly the same as the Dodomat I bought a while back. I can certainly recommend that stuff for gearbox tunnels, £29 for 20 sheets and it takes 5 - 6 for each tunnel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteH Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 I`m just browsing the net looking for the best all round "Value". and Noico came up on amazon. Dynamat is very expensive, and I could do with a decent cheaper option. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
