taikitanabe Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 Anyone ever use bedliner in the interior of your dime? Say like Al's HNR and then a bedliner top coat? I just laid down some Al's HNR on the firewall and the front pans, but debating to run some bedliner on top of it as a top coat. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 I probably wouldn't do it in my dime. But that'a s personal preference. What are you hoping to gain? Quote Link to comment
taikitanabe Posted March 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 Draker- The Al's HNR is supposed to be a heat and noise reducer. Probably best to just lay some daynamat type stuff on top of it to kill some of cabin noise huh. Hopefully the HNR will keep the cab a bit cooler than stock. Quote Link to comment
2wheel-lee Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 DIY bedliner is commonly done in Samurais and Jeeps. It works well to reduce some noise and somewhat keep water that enters from just sitting on the metal and rusting. It works reasonably well. For noise reduction, it takes a lot...not just a few spray cans. A mix of Dynamat and spray would be more ideal. Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Using bedliner works for deadener because it adds mass. Yes it helps, but it's considered pretty inefficient by sound guys. There are significantly better options that won't cost much more than the bedliner. Lizard skin makes a bedliner-esqu roll on sound deadener. Mass loaded vinyl is excellent for adding mass efficiently. Isolation layers will help as well. Quote Link to comment
