Automute Sound Deadening

[Jon]

I am now about to start adding sound deadening and insulation to my kombi.
Was going to use silent coat as most others do however I stumbled across this stuff.
I got samples of both and fancy this stuff as it just seems to be thicker and heavier ?
I also like the fact its gold and it says silence is golden and I am a sucker for things like that.
Should be a link below, not sure if anyone has tried it ?

How many clips did you have to replace, if any?

So i am slowly going round the van, Auto mute on everything i can get to. It is razor sharp on the cut edges but all seems to be going on well and certainly makes the panel much more dense. I have then put mega van mats dacron insulation on top. Then carpeted the original panels and fixed back on with Harrison's hidden clips. Still got the roof and front doors to do and everything feels a much nicer place to be already no rattling and definitely quieter.

I think they are vanstyle, VW got me them after a Muppet technician made a mess of the arches in my last van a 5.1 never fitted tthem so i thought i would put them to good use.

Anyone know what happened to this company? Just gone to buy some more to carry on with what I did 18 months ago and there’s no sign of them online anymore.
