Gold Member Username: FrkkevinTeam DLSSuperNatural... Post Number: 5716 Registered: Nov-05 | does it really matter? just buy more than you think youll need and youll use the rest somewhere else double layer it in some areas .. its not very thick  |

Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego, California Post Number: 4637 Registered: Dec-06 | In addition to what Kevin said, it is a good idea to use a heatgun because peel and seal will eventually fall off if you don't. |
|
Gold Member Username: FrkkevinTeam DLSSuperNatural... Post Number: 5724 Registered: Nov-05 | a hairdryer works well btw. if you don't have a heatgun thats what i used .. if you roll it well and have a clean surface you may not need to heat it.. depends on how curved it it |

Silver Member Username: Yukhui4 15 AA Havocs, Memphis 4kw!! Post Number: 969 Registered: Jan-06 | In my experience, Peel and Seal does NOT stick very well lol. I did use alcohol pads and a heat gun as well... I would try using it on the doors and whatnot, but I wouldn't mount it on anything upside down such as the trunk lid. |

Gold Member Username: BonhamdPost Number: 1342 Registered: Nov-07 | i just put 4 rolls in the trunk it was a lot stickier than i expected and went in fairly easy - well see how she works |

Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 22600 Registered: Oct-05 | is that stuff asphalt based? |
|
Gold Member Username: BonhamdPost Number: 1344 Registered: Nov-07 | i used a hair dryer a little bit when certain peices didnt want to stick much i thought the hair dryer was useful at times but not 100% needed i didnt get great results using the roller because my trunk has a lot of grooves and my hands seemed to work best the roller did come in handy in flat tight spots though |
|
Gold Member Username: BonhamdPost Number: 1345 Registered: Nov-07 | im not really sure if its asphalt based - it has a funny smell to it but nothing big after i put my spare tire and all of my carpeting back in i couldnt smell it at all |
|
Gold Member Username: Tatonka-[Team Audible Insanity]- Post Number: 2388 Registered: Mar-07 | Now tell us the results lol. Did it help any? Worth the money and time you put into it? Scale of 1-10 on how happy you are with the product? Full reviews ftw. |

Gold Member Username: FrkkevinTeam DLSSuperNatural... Post Number: 5730 Registered: Nov-05 | the grooves are a pain but you still need to roll it on there .. getting all the air out and getting it to adhere to every surface area is the key to it absorbing the energy my trunk was a huge pita.. took at least half a day |
|
Gold Member Username: BonhamdPost Number: 1346 Registered: Nov-07 | i did roll a lot of places but it was flat out pointless in some places if i had any air pockets i would slice the air pocket with a razor and roll it out i will get a review together soon - but i do not have anything in the car at the moment today i plan to put in my mechman alt and put in a couple runs of 1/0 |
