Abahub 394 mil 16 sqft Car Hood Insulation Pad Auto Sound Deadener Door Dampener Deadening Mat Heat / Cool Liner, Self-Adhesive Closed Cell Material (PE Foam Sound Deadener) 59"x39"

My 2000 Toyota Camry LE's OEM Hood heat shield insulation/deadener started deteriorating and pieces of it being peeled off so i decided for a DIY replacement project and bought this Abahub 236mil 4x6 (16sqft - measured first the size of my OEM Hood heat shield as there comes options in sizes). The package came at a very good condition nicely packed inside a plastic and rolled. I inspected the product as there were some reviews about damage/ripped aluminum foil and I am glad mine came in without a damage.Carefully unroll the sheet on a flat surface ( i used my garage floor) and gently flatten the surface (aluminum side facing the ground to prevent damage) and once evenly flat, flip the sheet aluminum now facing up and let it rest and prep for cutting to size matching the OEM from the car. I used sharpie pen to mark the holes and exact size to cut and I just used a medium size office scissor (very easy cut) don't use box cutter it would create a tear to the insulation padding and rip off the aluminum if dragged. There were 11 spots i marked for the location of the round push in clips (when i removed the 11 clips all of them broke and no longer usable but i always keep many clip parts for my vehicles). I was only able to get 4 out of 11 push clips to match the holes when i applied the insulation to the hood (not to worry, the backing adhesive will do the job to hold it together. OEM does not have backing adhesive, it was hold in place by the 11 push clips to the hood)I started from the top which matches the exact location of the top 3 holes allowing me to work without an extra pair of hands. I didn't push the new round clips just halfway and enough to hold the insulation sheet allowing me to access and gently peel off the backing adhesive cover to expose the adhesive part of the sheet. Worked my way from top slowly applying pressure to stick to the hood back surface and making sure the insulation sticks to the surface making sure there is no gap/air.Tip: if during the install, you accidentally damage or rip off a part of the aluminum heat shield, you can simply patch it with an industrial grade aluminum tape (commonly used in HVAC install/repairs).Ultimately, this product can be to cut to size, easy to install with enough thickness and insulation for heat and reducing engine sound/noise when driving the vehicle.I highly recommend, this product won't disappoint you.

I am 100% pleased with the product and ease of installation. Just be careful when putting it on because once it touches, it’s there for good. Good noise dampening and excellent heat insulation. Recommend.

The adhesive is really good and can handle a lot of heat! I have used it on several projects now and has held up for months!

I used this insulation material along with butyl sound-deadening adhesive mats to insulate the interior of my vehicle. My goal was to reduce the drone of the exhaust.Overall, this insulation material, along with the butyl sound deadening, helped to reduce the interior droning noise. As other reviewers have stated, this insulation is very sticky.One thing that I did not like about this product is that the brown wax-like paper used to cover the adhesive until use was very finicky and did not come off cleanly. Often, when removing this paper just before installation, it would not come off uniformly and would tear randomly, leaving small remnants on the adhesive side of the insulation. I think that if a thicker or better-quality adhesive-protecting paper were used, it would improve the installation experience.

Birds and mice ate up the heat shield on our Explorer. Not sure what the attraction was, anyway, this product worked great. I cut it to fit, using the old one to make a template and mark where the plastic push-pins were located. I only peeled 2" around the edge of this shield. My wiper fluid tubes are directly under the shield. I can remove a little easier without the whole thing stuck to the hood. I put silver tape around all the edges for added protection. No animals interested in this stuff. Highly recommend! Cheaper then a factory replacement and you know you can cut it fit, no returns for getting the wrong product, universal fit.

This product is very well made and definitely high-quality. There is a kind of a string material laid into the aluminum backing which prevents it from overstretching and tearing. I found this to be very useful when installing considering I was walking on it and kneeling with my knees I never had an issue of tearing the glue is very strong so make sure you know where you're putting it because you won't be able to lift it up without destroying the foam. I use this to insulate a transmission tunnel and the entire floor of my vehicle there is absolutely zero heat radiating from my carpet now .The paper backing was hard to take off initially but I took the roll into my driveway and rolled it out completely paper side facing up in the Sun and 20 minutes later the glue was soft enough to easily peel the entire paperback off. So if you have issues peeling the paper just roll it flat and make sure you pull carefully because the the paper easily tears.

Not sure what I was expecting, but the foil covering is very, very thin. Like, aluminum foil thin. Was hoping for something a little thicker and tougher for an engine compartment application. I used it, but I'm sure I'll be replacing it within a year.

It does help with sound on the roof/ceiling of my Kawaski Mule. You have to be cautious with installation as it is very sticky and there is no going back once it makes contact. Keeps the heat out too.

It is easy to manage when installing even without a heat gun. Sticks easily. It was on a discount when I bought it and I can say good value for the price.
