23-11-2024Decent for what it is…. Not as thick as 80mil I believe but it does the trick. If you do 2 to 3 layers you will be sold just 1 layer might not do it for a big audio build.

Greater than one weekBought 2 boxes for a total of 72 sq.ft. Used professional installation service to install the material on all four doors, trunk lid, hood. I installed the remaining material in the trunk myself. Very little change observed on my 2013 Toyota Corolla LE. The installation shop mentioned that the material is too thin, and that they would not recommend it to anyone. For floors and firewall, I decided to use Dynamat Extreme/Hushmat/Soundskins Pro. You get what you pay for. If you really want proper sound deadening, use thicker, highly quality materials. Edit : I installed Soundskins Pro on my floor (including wheel wells) + firewall, and that deadened some of the road noise. Its much more expensive than Kilmat, but it also has acoustic foam in addition to butyl rubber. If you are cost conscious, you could do Kilmat + some closed cell foam insulation like Noico Liner or Siless 157 mil foam (I ordered Siless foam and will be adding it to my doors + trunk + trunk lid to supplement the Kilmat) Edit : Changing from 2 to 4 stars. I recently learnt that just adding butyl layer alone will not get rid of road noise, but will help in dealing with rattles. Most new cars dont rattle noticeably when compared with older trucks/pickups/cars. So, if you install just the butyl layer on the new cars, you probably will be very disappointed even with dynamat/hushmat etc. Adding closed cell foam layer will largely reduce road noise and harshness. I added 15 sq. ft of Siless sound deadening foam to 2 front doors and under hood(also look at Noico liner. If your budget is higher you can get the Second Skins Luxury liner Pro). That alone has dramatically changed how the car feels. I plan to add the foam to the other 2 doors, trunk lid and the trunk sides. I am quite confident that the addition should kill off a lot of road noise for me. A more expensive option, but easier to install option is to go for combination sheets like the SoundSkins Pro that includes both the foam and butyl layer on the same sheet (I got those professionally installed on my floor + firewall)

Price is good, really good, but….
> 3 dayI mean you get what your paying for. My car already has almost 36 cubic feet of Ballistic deadener. That’s my last piece , and I want to say that one weighs about the same as 5 sheets of the Kilmat. As you can see the kilmat will take up more space. That might good for some, but I’m pushing my Jetta hard for SPL and I been getting some very annoying rattles still. So there’s a few spots I missed with the Ballistic, but I wasn’t trying to spend $200 on more of that so I got this kilmat. I’m sure it’ll get me there right. However I’m 99 percent sure if I originally got kilmat I’d be very unsatisfied . I didn’t want to wait on shipping or pay too much. There’s only the roof and a few odds and ends left to do so I’ll just double it. If your just trying to remove trunk rattle for a 500 to 1200 watts setup this might be ok for some. Maybe the doors . But if your like me, there’s going to be much more you’ll need to do, this aint gonna work

Greater than one weekVery easy to work with and great adhesion. You will need the Norsmic roller to make this job a success. No smell at all. Installed in the rear trunk of a 2015 Kia Forte which sits low to the ground and absorbs a lot of road noise. This quieted things down I would say 90%. Makes for a quiet ride and helped with sound quality as having a subwoofer in the trunk it kept any rattling from happening. Perfect purchase, I am very happy

Greater than one weekI just applied this to my 3rd Gen 2018 Toyota Tundra Crewmax, which has a big cab you should know and it sounds better and I can see some noise cancelling coming from this. I used 2 packages total and for my all my door interior panels, back seating and back panels and I need to order another set. There was a smell that lingers for a couple of days but it literally disappears after that! Every review made it seem like it was unbearable but truth is that once you get it applied just apply some air freshening deodorizer and itll go away within a few days. It sounds fuller and quieter. Everything on any new car, except a rolls royce I guess, gets a ton of exterior noise level! The adhesion is good as long as you got a reliable roller too by the way. I have yet to do my firewall, driver side and transmission/center console hump so thats next. If Im doing the headliner, Im going to consider doing a insulator and sound Deadened for that instead of the kilmat. And a note for anyone with open and spacious big cab or interior, please consider ordering more than just what they recommend on their sizing. I followed that suggestion and I really recommend ordering a couple more than expected. For Tundras probably a good 4 packages if you are doing all everything. And if youre on a budget so far this is the best way to do it.

> 3 dayIm never 100% sure how well this stuff works, Ive purchased name brand and off brand and never felt like it was a night and day difference, but then again I rarely do a whole car in one go so its more of an incremental change. Does a great job taking buzzing and rattling out of panels for sure, and seems to somewhat improve bass clarity, but I dont know that it does much for road noise etc.

> 3 dayUsed this to deaden some of the noise in my 2023 Polaris Ranger XP. Easy to use and it deadened some of the sound. I would buy again.
