not sure why it was necessary to use all caps lol,

i would prefer all butyl my self i have used it and all the big player in the deadener game use all butyl for its properties. the butyl smell typically goes away after couple months. i had plenty of deadener in my acura and it was Dynamat since i got it at cost when i worked at bestbuy. i had no issues with smell and i did the cabin, trunk and doors.


I also sent a message and got the exact same response. I really don't know crap about sound deadners. I am an old drag racer and removed the factory deadner and threw it in the trash to save weight. I will trust your recomendations..
