Default Sound deadener

Years ago a friend of mine used roofing "Bull Tar" on the inside of his doors as a sound and vibration deadener. Seemed to work as I recall. Anyone ever tried it . I'm at that stage of assembly.

That was used by GM in the '60s.

I recommend a stick on mat like Dynamat. Modern technology.

Rusty,
I wrote an article about noise & heat reduction that I employed in the restoration of my Victoria. Send me your email and I will send it to you.
My technique uses inexpensive materials you can buy at Home Depot.

Unless you want to spend more money than you need too, this is the way to go

I've used Dynamat and Roadkill.

Most big box stores sell a foil coated bubble wrap looking product. Most have a self stick adhesive. The cheapest have no stickum, but a 3M spray adhesive will do the job. I bought a product, similar to Dynamat, Noico 80 mil Car Sound Deadening Mat 36 square feet for $1.78 per sq ft shipped. It is a heavy foil backed by a thick tar like adhesive.
