Sound Proofing |
|

|
I have bought a roll of Dodo sound proofing for my SWB diesel |
|
hard top. |
|
There appears to be plenty on the roll but any suggestions for |
|
areas I should prioritise ? |

Which type of soundproofing is it? The bitumen stuff doesn't |
|
need to cover the whole panel as it's just there to add mass and |
|
cut down on the panel vibrating/resonating. |
|
I've used the bitumen & foil based on most of the panels which |
|
sound tinny, this made a lot vibration/resonating noise go. On |
|
the engine side of the bulkhead I have noise killer foam and |
|
lead sandwich and dyno mat on the bonnet. |
|
The tub has mass loaded vinyl on the wheel arches. |
|
Fairly quiet in mine now but the down side is i'm now hearing |
|
and chasing down annoying rattles and squeaks which were |
|
previously masked by the general din. Able to have a |
|
conversation with rear area passengers now without having to |
|
shout. |

I reckon I�d start thinking about both sides of the bulkhead, |
|
and footwells. |
|
Stick some on the inside door skins, and bung some conveyor |
|
belting on the floor panels. |
|
Oh, an there�s the tunnel of course. |
|
My only �soundproofing� is a piece of artificial turf that |
|
covers the floors and tunnel.😁 |

Yes, it's the bitumen & foil on a rather heavy roll. I have put |
|
some in the upper footwells and will use something moveable on |
|
the floor 'conveyor belting' perhaps. |
|
Door panels are next then. I will see if I can put some on |
|
engine side of bulkhead. Not sure about bonnet, it heavy enough |
|
as it is ! |
|
How about the inner wings ? Fully waxoyled underneath so it |
|
would have to be visible, it silver so not sure how I feel about |
|
that ? |
