Okay im going to reffer to someones saying "forgot whos it is" im a poor boy in a rich mans game. Anyway with that said I have a little problem. few days ago I went on a rattle revenge and now my trunk is pretty damn close to rattle free but now with that done I find my whole car rattles! Doors mirrors courter panels ect. ect... every peice of metal on that car rattles. Now remembering that sayings how can i fix this with sound deadning. I was looking at maybe v-block, or fosgate red "that spray crap" im looking for something that does a decent job and that wont break my wallet.

Certainteed Weatherguard or Grace Vycor.Both are self adhesive tar/rubber compounds. $60 per 105 x 3ft roll. Get fiberglass...the pink stuff fill in air gaps that stay dry. Use self tapping sheet metal screws for metal on metal that's concealed and cans of expanding foam on the inside of finish sheet metal.All cheap.
Also, go to wal-mart and look for Marhyde (spelling?) That stuff you spread on with a brush or roller. I think there's still something called durabak (spelling?) that is used for an undercoating on 4x4s, but works just as well as a noise deadener. Further down on the cheapy line, use that rubber goo stuff that you put on the handles of your favorite screw driver (the non-slip stuff). Put a layer of that goop on your panneling, you can even put your carpeting back down over it, if you want it surgically bonded to the steal!!! If not, let it dry, then lay the carpet back down. You could always go for Gaff-tape (professional road crews use this stuff to keep everything together, including their cars!!) It's like duct-tape on 'roids!! Just layer that stuff on as thick as you want it (cotton thread based), it runs about $8.00/roll and you can get assorted colors too.
Good luck
