X-MAT® Sound Deadening Material 5pc - 12x12This made he most noticeable difference after I installed sound deadeners in the doors, floor and headlining. The rear panel below the rear window has four 12x12 embossed area. These deadeners fit perfectly with minor trimming. When finished I attached 1/4 inch foil faced bubble insulation from inside the latch pillar over to the other latch pillar. Before I started I hit the panel with the palm of my hand and it sounded like an empty drum, after completion it sounded like slapping the side of a tree. Very happy I did this.

Double duty productBought these primarily to reduce heat through floorboard. It did that very well but also reduced noise quite a bit. Excellent product but rather pricey. Very easy to install also

The things you need!!I used this product in the doors and the roof of a 1956 Chevy. It was easy to manipulate to get into the space as I needed to. I believe it’s quality product you can trust it.

Sound mat installation and reviewI find the X-MAT super easy to install and it makes such a difference in the passenger compartment noise when driving down the road. Also the heat from the exhaust below the floor is reduced as well. Good quality stuff and usually on sale fairly often with free shipping!!

If I use Textured Rust Encapsulator on my classic car's floor will the X-Mat properly adhere? I feel it should but would there be a big difference using textured rust encapsulator or your regular rust encapsulator product then applying the X-Mat over top?
Asked by: Mike
This butyl rubber adhesive backed mat can be used over any of our Encapsulators (once cured) without any issues.

Will this replace the jute under the carpet?
Asked by: Brad
The Eastwood XMAT Sound Deadening Material(15842) is not a complete replacement for jute carpet backing in that it does not provide the padding effect of the jute. It is far superior in providing sound deadening and insulation from heat. The foam or jute backed carpet would be layed over the top of the XMAT product to improve the quietness and temperature regulation of the vehicle interior compartment.
