dakotahchore Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 Do not get peel and seal. It will smell like a freshly paved road. 1 Quote Link to comment
captaingamez Posted June 4, 2013 Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 and thats what I figured, I am gonna order some of the automotive grade butyl stuff tonight for the firewall Quote Link to comment
Just Joel Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 I did the entire interior of my t100 with peel and seal two years ago. Drive it everyday and I have never had an issue with smell or adhesion even with our high desert summers (sustained temps of over 100 for weeks at a time) just sayin, I will be using it again on the dato ;) Quote Link to comment
cimarronlibre75 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Great Job! Quote Link to comment
captaingamez Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 but for the price you might as well go with gtmat which is butyl based, its like the same price Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 For removal of the tar or butyl based sound deadener a good technique is to use dry ice or even the compressed air in cans to freeze the sheets. One whack with a hammer and it shatters. 1 Quote Link to comment
captaingamez Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 if you can afford it, an even better method is liquid nitrogen, and its alot cheaper than you think, usually $5 a liter and you have to have a dewar to hold it, those are around 50-100$ Quote Link to comment

MikeRL411 Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 For short periods a large styrofoam chest also works. Or stainless steel thermos bottles, that's what dermatologist's offices use when the foam coffee cup is too small. Quote Link to comment
Dguy210 Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Or stainless steel thermos bottles, that's what dermatologist's offices use when the foam coffee cup is too small. I've used one of these at work for holding liquid nitrogen before, just drill some holes in the top cap to vent. Just don't use a glass lined one, they only last about 5-6 times before the glass shatters. Quote Link to comment
captaingamez Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 yea i have heard of people using a thermos, whatever you use you gotta make sure you put a hole in it as dguy210 said. otherwise you have a nasty bomb on your hands, as the nitrogen boils ultra slow and puts off nitrogen gas it will build alot of pressure. the other thing you have to be careful with is when you use a few liters of it on a car floor you should wear a respirator, or just be careful, cause the nitrogen will displace air, its called inert gas asphyxiation, very dangerous, just be careful and you will be fine if your gonna try it, like anything its not dangerous if given the respect it deserves. 1 Quote Link to comment
AJY Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 Have any of you guys thought about running Line X? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 You want an air supply for your respirator. Most respirators just filter the air. Quote Link to comment
MantisX620 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 So an update. I laid down the Useal from home depot along with the carpet padding they sell in the hardwood floor section. Then I layed down some carpet I got out of a 94 S-10. I also put U seal inside my doors. I can now hear my radio at a much lower volume. The wife rode in it and shes happy we can now carry on a conversation at normal voice level! Do it! Quote Link to comment
a.d._510_n_ok Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 bump. vintage rice, thanks for this write-up. It's a helluva tutorial for non-upholsterers like myself :thumbup:. Quote Link to comment
az_rat210 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Suggestion. 25% coverage on the roof with the butyl, with closed cell foam over that overlapped by 1/2" to create a continuous barrier. The roof is a huge sound transmitter. You can also put extruded butyl tape between the crash panels and outer skin of the doors; this splits it into 2 smaller panels and brings down the resonating frequency from a tinny sound to a dull thud. Then 25% coverage of the split panels. Quote Link to comment
stormsinger54 Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 These look amazing!! Quote Link to comment
KoHeartsGPA Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 I used this...$16 for 25ft roll... Worked great too. Quote Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted June 26, 2016 Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 I've used one of these at work for holding liquid nitrogen before, just drill some holes in the top cap to vent. Just don't use a glass lined one, they only last about 5-6 times before the glass shatters. 2 holes! One bent above the cap at an angle for the outlet, below the liquid Nitrogen level, the second well above the fluid level, To use, put your index finger over the vertical [above the liquid level] tube and let the pressure from the transpiring/sublimitating N2 liquid build up enough pressure to expel liquid N2 onto what I hope the hell you intended to freeze.
