Jim's Build Thread

I'm planning on setting up the layers as follows:

passenger compartment

interior carpet
sound damping matting
inner aluminum panel
homebrew lizard skin made from a mixture of glass microballoons & self etching aluminum primer
FFR insulation
homebrew lizard skin made from a mixture of glass microballoons & self etching aluminum primer
"outside" aluminum panels
self etching aluminum primer
Rhino bed liner

road surface

From your experience it sounds like I should be adding 1 or more layers of the DEI BOOM mat (or similar) as well. The question is where? I haven't checked yet, is there enough room between the lower and upper aluminum panels for the BOOM mat to fit in as well as the FFR provided insulation? And/or a 2nd layer between the inner panel top side & the sound matting?

The insulation panel's FFR supplies fills up that cavity to the top, so unfortunately there is no room to add a layer of boom mat under the aluminum sheet. It sounds like from above you should be fine. with everything you're doing. My only point is the sheet aluminum-insulation-sheet aluminum alone is not a good plan.
