Message: <blockquote data-quote="defcon1" data-source="post: 1749543" data-attributes="member: 30064">This is my final post before the holidays...The boot insulation project has been a success. Despite the rush job, working only after I got home...circa 9 pm every night, the job was complete in 3 nights. The bitumen strips are working and the insuflex does what it is supposed to do. The rear of my car is now absolutely quiet...Because I used bitumen strips of only 3" width, laying them down took some time. However, on the plus side, when laying on non-horizontal surfaces, should anything come loose, it doesn't drag everything else down with it... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1425" alt=":smile:" title="Smile    :smile:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":smile:" />Insuflex is, however, a bit more difficult. Because it didn't come self-adhesive, rubber gum takes time to use, and it forces you to cut smaller pieces of insuflex and piece them together like a jigsaw puzzle. The sound-proofing, however, is very good.Total cost of sound proofing our boot...2 rolls of bitumen strips @ $ 28 per roll = $563 sheets of Insuflex (3' x 4') @ $ 15 per sheet = $45 (I double layered it...on top of car floorboard and under my MDF floorboard, else you'd only need 2 sheets at most....about RM 100 to do the job...which is probably about a third what it would cost using "traditional" materials... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1425" alt=":smile:" title="Smile    :smile:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":smile:" />...next...doors and passenger compartment floorboards... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1425" alt=":smile:" title="Smile    :smile:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":smile:" /></blockquote>
