EASILY Sound Treat your Car for Better Sound! - CarAudioFabrication
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The sound treatment process requires several layers of different materials to be done correctly. This can be time consuming and difficult. What if there was a material that allowed us to apply different layers in one application? How would we apply it and what kind of improvements in the output of bass and sound could we expect? Learn how to improve mid bass, cut down on airborne road noise, stop rattles and more in this video showing the how to process for effective automotive sound treatment, more commonly referred to as "sound deadening" using a new material called “SoundSkins”. Thank you to SoundSkins for sponsoring this video!

I wonder if a true deadening treatment would cost to many man hours on their side. But certainly s option I would pay for if offered.

I had a 2012 jetta TDI premium with fender sound system and right out from factory my car had this sort of mat on inside of door! here is one of reasons why german cars have been always known for quality also if you use adequate ammount of this stuff it will make the door in your prius close like in mercedes class S lol
I am about to perform what you did here on my very old Octavia. Your explanation and method was both top notch and crystal clear. Before this, I was nervous about the entire process but I feel more confident now. I will never forget your help with this. Thank you very much.
I really would a loved to hear a before and after of the road noise!
Awesome! Love your videos! I thought it was great how you did a comparison of the before/after measurements of the sound response. It helps to really depict how much of an improvement you can make by performing something like this.
Thanks for your videos, man! You have a fantastic approach to your work - great quality, and measured results - very inspiring & enjoyable to watch!
Corners should be cut at a round to lessen the peel off when it is hot or cold.

Thanks for the tip
Best video about sound deadening installation, “fresh” ideas and techniques !!!
Killer video Mark. Seriously one of the best most descriptive videos ever.
Just had an alpine car play head unit and speakers installed into my 2010 Pontiac G8. Also had the front doors sound deadened. Sounds awesome.
Really appreciated the way you explain sound damping. I have done the same thing to my car ..the bass, middle and treble improves a lot...but the problem is, without damping I didn't feel any ear pain, but after damping I felt stressed ear after listening music for long time..

Might be your EQ or volume levels
Thanks Mark that's awesome. Love the Tesa tape transfer first. Brilliant idea. *wish I could like more than once.
I just bought a 2019 VW and installed a sub, the rattles from the trunk were killing the sound so as of today I am getting this done on the trunk and all 4 doors. Ill keep you posted on how it turns out and if its a noticeable sound and noise difference. I hope so!
I love that you took the time to replace the large piece that covers door holes. Also I would use spray on boom mat for the plastic panels and sound skins or a cheaper roofing insulation roll very simular to what you used to save a little money on a personal project.
Thanks for making all this great content. I enjoy your channel. 😊.
That stuff looks wonderful! I just hate the expense of sound treatments in general... That stuff's a bit pricy, but seeing as it combines two layers in one roll, it's not as expensive as some. :)
Great video!!! Very informative, zero useless chatter.
Yep will definitely do this to mine A3 once the weather gets better BTW GREAT VIDEO!
If I had a nickel for every time Mark says Tesa Tape.
Super dope since I got an Impala, I will give this a try to help! thank you!
other then the green tesa if you want a cheaper option I've used cling wrap. its saran wrap for leftover food storage or whatever but it's basically sticky saran wrap. it's made from glad.
Awesome! I learn alot watching your videos!
Thank you! I am looking to sound treat my 2015 Jetta Hybrid and 2014 BMW Z4. I'll keep researching to learn more. I'd appreciate any more advice you can give! Cheers.
Thanks Mark. I'm getting ready to install Kilmat 50mil butylfoil throughout the cab of my truck.
I like to put some sound treatment on the insides of where my cupholers are and console storage and parts of it where change and other stuff my end up, its helps a lot
I so need to do this. Great vid thank you!
I love the background music used it reminds me of being a kid and watching cod zombies tutorials
For road noise reduction, which one do you think is better, Dynamat or SoundSkin?
Is it odd that I’m looking up videos on how to sound proof my car and I have an impala that is white and has a tan interior just like this one and I come across this video?
Great vid...... Always top notch. Thanks!
If you are on an extremely tight budget, what level would you take and what materials would you use? I have a full size car like the Impala
I have left over rolls of butyl adhesive from working at a Basement waterproofing company And some other stuff that might work too
Love the videos Mark. Keep 'em coming...BTW...What RTA setup are you using here?
I've watched both this and your luxury liner pro install video, which product would you say works the best and is the easier install? Thanks
Hey Mark, keep up the great work with attention to detail! How can someone have a vehicle featured on your channel?
Awesome. Now to figure out how to do this on the cheap. Looked up yoga mat + sound dampening and got a ton of results. Now what to paint it with too enhance the effectiveness.
This car already had some decent sound deadening covers on. I can imagine the improvements on those with only thin plastic. Especially if amplified sound system
Amazing video. Thanks for sharing this. Exactly what I needed

Mark you should test GP car audio's STFUv2 sound proofing material. Your opinion would help me make my decision on which sound dampening material to use. Thanks for all you do & keep up the great work.
i need this just for the road noise in my car.

I would really take the time/effort to put the car in the air, and get some of that stuff you can coat the wheel wells with. I believe there's a company in arizona that makes some non toxic smelling stuff you can use... Going through that process with my 370z...

Thanks for another great video. What microphone do you use for the measurements?
Cool, this product looks incredibly interesting!:)
where can i get the film he uses in 3:55 i looked up tesa tape and tesa film and cant find anything other than tiny rolls
Hey Mark, nice video and product. Just got a new car and getting ready to do this all over again. Question, what microphone is that? just purchased an Audison bit 10 and I am looking for something like this. Thanks man.
Thanks for another relevant and awesome video..... Can you do an episode on the use of sound processors such as the Audio Control Lc7i in future installs.

LCi7 is not a sound processor, it's a way to turn speaker level outputs to low level so you can run amps.
Had to SLAM! that like button and thank you for your time SIR
Thanks for the measurements!
What software have you used to measure the sound pressure level ? Thanks and great job!
Installing some deadeners in my car this weekend. Would you recommend doing the doors as extensively as you did, meaning the inside door shell, doorframe, and plastic shell as well, or would i get more bang for my buck doing 25% of the door shell, the door frame, and my floorboards/roof? If i do not have enough for both the roof and floor, which would be best?
great video, great information!
So that butyl adhesive back is cool to have exposed on the inside of your door? If that's the case it is going to make replacing the vapour barrier for my power window conversion a lot easier
I did this. Covered the whole inner side of the door with foam sheets. End result is reduced road noise. One drawback I feel is that the speakers lost a bit of mid range. But bass became so tight.

Thanks for the comment. Definitely not doing this for my pa mids
I do! Great video brother!
For how many Rms subwoofer do you need to cover the floor and top of the cover if thats a need. And do you need anything apart from single deadner sheet.. Flex sheet, foam etc..
Mark, long time fan here. Would you then add MLV to the door panels like you did in the Second Skin door video? Also, I see two approaches that people do in doors. One approach is to layer the outer skin with CLD and then some type of sound absorption material to the whole outer skin (not just behind the speaker, i.e. fast rings) for the back waves. The second is to only use CLD tiles and then use a hard material (ABS/MDF) to cover the big holes to create a "box" for the speaker. Which method is best for the audio system?
Where did you place that small square on the door lock? I have the same car and couldn’t figure out exactly where you put that
Hey loved the vid, i'm your fan since you started this channel, i have 1 question 4 u, i have a nissan altima 01, is my cargo car, i want to put at least a 8 in subwoofer but i can't put it in the trunk, well i've been thinking about do it between the rear speakers or do u have a better idea ?
Couple of comments here... As always excellent video. Secondly this new soundskins deadener is getting rave reviews and I plan on ordering some myself in the near future! And lastly my Mazda 6 has a plastic insert on the door that holds the window mechanism and all that junk! I have taken this panel off (kind of ish) and let me tell you it was a pain to get back on and have my windows working properly etc. I didn't get it off enough to fully sound deaden it, so my question is have you ever worked on a door like this? If so got any tips for a shade tree audio nut like myself? Anyways thanks for the video's you should know your work is appreciated!
Do I need to sound dampen my front doors if the only aftermarket speakers I have are two 12" subs (Kicker L7Ss) which are aimed upwards in the back of my SUV (Ford Edge)?
Would treating the door panel be the same on a car with plastic outer panels, such as a Saturn(I own a 2002 Saturn S-series)..great video and very informative
I think JayzTwoCents would appreciate the background music lol
Nice video, very clear instructions. Did you toss the vapor barrier? I didn't see you reinstall it.
good vid great work!!
Planning to do this one my car. Just one question, is there a big difference if i dont cover the inside door opening or cavities with the sound deadening material? Or will bass response and overall sound quality be better if i close the opening with some sound deadening?
Mostly higher class car already put sound dampling on the panel, europe car for example. But for most japanese car really need this treatment.
If I'm removing the door panned should I also disconnect the battery beforehand? Are there any errors on the computer that could appear?
good learning...thanx mate
I love your channel. It would be great to know A + B comparison with Dynamat.
thanks for the awesome vid
do you recommend this stuff for a classic convertible? how much can I really prep vs the sound I'll lose with the top down?
What a good, detailed video. I smashed that like button, even though I won't do it myself

Hey Mark, I was just wondering if there is something wrong with your site. It seems that I can't access it and am curious if it's just a personal problem or if it is something to do with the site it's self. Thank you for the excellent videos and keep up the great work!
I'm gathering from the video that the butyl material applied effectively replaces the vapor barrier that was installed by the manufacturer?
how do you do this with vehicles that have all the inner door components attached to a plastic frame like my 14 dodge charger?
Great video!
Mark, love the videos! However i would enjoy if you could start doing a before and after comparison in sound by actually recording songs via camera playing in the car before builds and modifications then after
hey id to see you build a stealth box for a 07-14 standard length Tahoe,yukon or escalade
As always you are on point

Im thinking of doing this to my camaro for my sound system. Lots of rattles and road noises but my car is fiberglass its ment to be light and fast. But i have no mid bass what so ever. So this is tempting. have you ever done a camaro with fiberglass doors?
I do not have such sound deadening materials here in Fiji such as soundshield. Could you please give an alternative solution od which type of material i could use as a sound deadening material on my vehicle?...thanks. big fan 😊
Glad I got an Impala too, installed it on floors too, way quieter lol
It's an old video but most sheets help reduce vibrations in the door thus making sound better. Without sheets, vibrations make it difficult to hear certain frequencies when music is playing.

How does the sound skin, compare to the abs door enclosure you made?
In my personal vehicles I have to find the balance between Sq and weight.Oh and btw Tesa tape is awesome. I have a pair of pants with a "patch" that is nothing more than some waterproof tesa tape and it has held up for months lol.

will there be any additional benefit if I wrap my subwoofer box on outside with a layer of soundskins sound deadening mat? because my subwoofer does not have carpet material on outside?
can you post the differences between the cheaper sound deadening material like NOICE 80 mil butyl compared to the soundskin. I'm considering buying the mega pack soundskins but I want to see if its a worthy investment.

If you can't afford this, then buy the cheaper product. No need for somebody to do a comparison for you. Car Audio is like making your car fast. Fast, Cheap, Reliable = You can only pick two and the same applies to Car Audio. Many of the less expensive alternatives are not designed for enclosed spaces...

hello I can ask you the brand or model of the microphone that I used in the video to record the frequencies thanks
How's the sound different between a non sound dampen door and a sound dampen door.

Does this block some road noise? I will install some myself if it works on the door panels instead of me stripping down the interior
