But I like them...odors of the past..
What did you use to clean it then? denatured alcohol would not leave a residue and shouldn't harm the paint. Otherwise I was going to use ammonia and water to clean then dry with air compressor and fans but would rather avoid using water if possible.Some of the professional installers use 'strips' for the inside of the quarters and door skins - basically, it's there to disrupt the resonance. I skinned the entire floor, firewall, roof, and trunk for heat shield benefits as well. Strips are inside of the door skins and quarters, with some of the deadening foam sheet inside the doors and quarters in-place of the water shields.
It's pretty quiet in mine all things considered, although I haven't driven it with the windows up, yet.
I had to replace the floor pans, and pretty much every surface inside my car had rust in some form or fashion. Once I removed the rust, welded in the new sheet metal, and got everything else ready to go, I used some Xylol Xylene ( http://www.amazon.com/Klean-Strip-QXY24-Xylol-Xylene-1-Quart/dp/B000V4L86A ) to wipe down everything. Once it "dried," I painted everything with Rust Bullet Black Shell. After that was all dried up, just a quick wipe-down with some House of Kolors KC10 Wax & Grease remover ( http://www.amazon.com/Gallon-GREASE-REMOVER-KC-10-HOUSE/dp/B001KN1JQ0 ). Then the Raamat.What did you use to clean it then? denatured alcohol would not leave a residue and shouldn't harm the paint.
