How gallons do you think you used? Is the 5 gallon bucket worth it?

Just under 3 gallons maybe? Container is a little below half full.

No idea how I'm going to prevent this from hardening now that it's exposed to oxygen

Thanks. Will you be spraying or rolling it in the front? Or inside the front door panels?

Sprayed inside the front door panels. Rolled on the front.

Cleaned my vinyl flooring today. The power washer wasn't nearly as effective as the wire wheel stripping the old jute.

Putting this back on the underside of the flooring before re-install.

Getting after the sound deadening! Spraying in Spectrum Second Skin.

Worst part is transferring from the 5 gallon bucket to the sprayer.

Sorry if it’s mentioned previously, what does this spray accomplish? Is it a replacement for a dynamat type of material to deaden vibrations?

Replacement for dynamat. It is the same thing but instead of pressing it on, you spray it on. I got it in way more places than I'd ever be able to stick on sound deadening.

That’s cool. What’s the next step - are you just putting carpet/vinyl flooring over it, are you adding mass loaded vinyl and foam?

The front will get the jute insulation above. The back I am still trying to figure out a flooring solution.

My plan is to build this into a camper with the alu-innovations pop top, so not sure back there. May spray in a bed liner for the time being.

I have a nearly new OEM rear floor cover, if you’re interested.
I couldn’t find gray, so bought a new one in tan. Can’t recall what I paid.
Ran it for a year or so until I came across a new gray one and swapped it in.

Let me know how much you're asking for it! Would be an ideal solution!

I just left town for a week.
I’ll grab some pics when I get back and come up with a price.
Fairly heavy and bulky.
Don’t suppose you’re going to the 70 series meet?

Unfortunately not in my plans right now for the 70 series meet.

I've got a mat that came with my troopy, let me confirm it's FUBAR before having you worry about shipping, etc.

I would like to buy if still available

I bought some Heat Wave Pro as well but found it pretty thick; like thicker than I thought I could use. Hopefully it works out for you.

Good to know! Thank you.

I'll let you know how it works out!

Am finally putting on my Kaymar rear bumper. When I took the OEM one off, I found some bondo. Found a rust spot that I then patched with metal reinforced bondo. My first time ever using bondo, so was a discovery learning process!

Used some gorilla tape inside the body to serve as a backing for the first attempt at filling the hole.

After all was said and done, covered everything in master series silver both outside and inside the body panel.
