Whats better the sheets or the spray? Also do both help with the heat if it's on the floor?

I'd say sheets, but that's only me. Sheet and spay should work even better together, nut that's a lot of weight to had

I don't have any experience with spray on deadeners but I can say I'm pretty impressed with the press on. I used 80 mil and am verry happy with the results. It does a really good job at keeping heat out of the the car.

I agree the sheets are easy to work with too. No mess to clean up.

Stuff they have is miles ahead of what was done when these cars were built.
Personally, I'd take the route of the Lizardskin spray on material, cleans up with water I believe. Tape off what you don't want covered, and spray it. |

Timely thread. Now that I have the body back on the frame I've started prepping the top side of the floors for paint. I wanted to go with the original sound deadner but it's in rough shape.

Unless you're doing a full concourse resto I wouldn't worry about using original sound deadner. Like Eliteman said, the new stuff is light years ahead of what they had back in the day. Either the spray on or adhesive backed will do a great job.

Read that. I like the approach 74 SCS took with his truck. I am going to try this with my F100. If it goes well, I'll do my Cougar as well. |
