Soundsulate 1 lb Mass Loaded Vinyl Soundproofing 4' x 25' (100 sf), Made in USA, Click for Options

Great product. Installation was easy. You just need a nice sharp blade

I had never worked with this type product before and after using 9 rolls, it's exactly what I needed. Although it's heavy, that's what I needed. I used this as one (1) of a four (4) layer subfloor in an older condominium (a soft layer, Soundsulate, 1/4" plyboard, engineered vinyl . The sound dampening was super helpful. The distributor was nice enough to refer me to the manufacturer for their feedback. I received a call back right away and the gentleman was very helpful as far as being a soundboard for usages and application. What they recommended is to not just take up the subfloor but to remove the baseboards as well and push the product under the drywall all the way to the 2x4 that is bracing the wall otherwise there is a gap that allows sound to go up into the walls and you're not getting the proper usage of the product. I also used a soundproofing calking around the edge next to the wall brace. Being new to this type of DIY job, I could not have had a better experience. With the lessons learned I would certainly use this product again but I would also consider a heavier pad. This does not stop structural noise, that requires going into the walls.... different project.

I applied this in my 2022 Ram 1500 Limited to isolate inside and outside noise. It was super easy to work with using a box cutter and drill bits depending on the situation. I shopped around and this was where I fell on value for my money compared to other MLV products. It's very workable and was highly effective in reducing road noise when applied to my inner doors, rear wall, and floor pan. I attached it using factory bolt locations. It did not come with any adhesive backing, etc. which I expected. I purchased some 3M spray adhesive, but decided to use factory bolts to hold it in place instead, so it would be easy to remove if I needed to service my inner doors in the future.

The product is heavy, stable, and does a good job of knocking out sound. Just know that in a small space, this product throws off some serious fumes. Like when you open a new plastic shower curtain liner x10. I hung this MLV in our bedroom to block out street noise. It's going on 4 days with an open window now and the plastic smell is still dominating. Pew.

My client wanted to enjoy his home theater experience without the entire house hearing it. If I had my way I would have put MLV b4 the drywall. But it did work well on top of the drywall. I was able to reduce the sound outside the room by 60%.I used roofing nails and a staple gun to Secure all the panels. You definitely want to have someone help you because the material has a little weight to it. To close all my seams I used a MLV tape.The other cool thing about the material I used every last piece of it. No need to waste any of it!!

I used this liner to soundproof my kids room who is a gamer and we can hear him from the other room. I used the liner on the wall and then soundproof slat panels over it. It damped the sound a little bit but definitely not really a soundproof. On top of the smell is horrific. We are on week 3 and can’t get rid of this poisonous rubber smell. I ran an ozone machine to try to eliminate the smell and it just doesn’t work. My son gets headaches and needs to sleep elsewhere. Do not use this product inside a home!

We live in a condo with a shared wall. On the other side of the shared wall are newborn twins. We love children, but during the night the crying was more than we can handle. Even worse, our bed is next to the wall. My wife and I were skeptical at first but decided to give MLV a try based on our research and positive reviews. The MLV arrived as expected. We nailed the MLV to the studs behind the existing drywall: caution – it is heavy! We used the recommended acoustic sealant around the perimeter being careful to cover all the gaps and outlets. We then covered the MLV with more drywall, again making sure everything was sealed. We learned from the installation instructions that sealing is key. We taped the drywall seams and painted. Today, you wouldn’t know that there was anyone living next door. Amazing stuff. We will be buying more.
