Dodo Mat Duo under rubber cargo floor.. between ridges or over battens?

[Rg_]

I'm sat here with the same problem, I have bought the dodo mat duo and had planned to do full coverage and screw 12mm ply direct to the metal base but the more I think I am not happy drilling into the van so I now need to decide whether I lay down batons and insulate between these or lay them down and still do a full coverage over the batons as well. its my first self conversion so not sure whats best to do. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance

This is what I'm thinking. I was wondering too whether to do the batons and then put the dodo then over all of it.
Just don't want it to be too high.

I did between the battons with 9mm plastic facing as thats what I had kicking about.
Silent coat between them for sound deadening then covered the while lot with an all in 1 mat then ply on top. Seems all good so far.

Some pics of what I have gone for. Dead mat duo in between the 9mm batons. I need to remove the Kombi seat brackets to put down the last batons.

I done dodo hex with floor supports, moisture membrane and then 12mm ply. You will need more supports tbh or your feel it over time.

By floor supports do you just mean more battens?

Morning Rg im sure he does i will add some in there's not a lot of floor actual showing once the furniture is in but it will help flatten it out i 'll bond the 9 mm battens and screw the floor onto that adding battens / supports on the seams too the furniture will be screwed onto the 12mm flooring .. i put a pic in to show u my carpeting above very please with it but dark blue shows every bit of fluff ... i brushed the hidden clip marks and they vanished

Evening all,
Has anyone used dodo mat duo under the kombi rubber flooring? It's 7mm thick, wondering if I'll have any depth issues when laying back down the kombi floor? Or even if it's worth doing...
Any thoughts on it would be great.
If I don't use it under the flooring I'll probs use it on the walls instead of thermo liner extreme!

Cheers!

We put silent coat under the floor with our sound deadening packages. Works really well

 

[Markyppp]

Nice one, thanks for the reply. Is that even under the kombi rubbery flooring? As that's what I'm likely going to be laying down on top

I put down silent coat underneath my kombi rubber floor it’s only 1.8 or 2mm thickness .

this is correct

Proper job by @BognorMotors, the cowboys who converted my van who claim to ‘ultra soundproof’ their vans don’t put anything under the rear matting because they say it’s already soundproofed, in fact they don’t even fill the rear voids with DoDo fleece. Avoid Wesse* Vans and go to a decent company like BMVS.

Hi - I run the dodo thermo stuff under the kombi rubber mat - just cut an inch around the seat mounts and thresholds so that the trims can go back on - bit of a push but works well (you can see a very very minor raise where the thermo liners not below the mat but would have to look for it

thanks
