Do-it-yourself boot lid soundproofing

We have already told you how to do do-it- yourself trunk soundproofing , but we practically did not touch the covers separately. Therefore, in this article we bring to your attention step-by-step instructions on how to silence the trunk lid.

Required Tool

To soundproof the trunk lid, you will need the following:

• rolling roller;
• Degreaser;
• Clean rags;
• Building hair dryer;
• Cutting tool (knife, scissors).

Process

Before proceeding to work, it is worth recalling that the trunk lids of a sedan and, for example, a station wagon or hatchback differ in their design. Therefore, for the last two options, work on noise is carried out according to the principle of soundproofing doors , which you can find on our website.

So, step by step, the work is as follows:

• First, carefully remove the cover trim. It is not necessary to remove the cover itself.
• Then, if there is dirt / dust, remove it.
• Using a rag and, for example, gasoline, degrease the entire metal surface. Let's dry.
• After that, cut out pieces of material to size.
• Next, we glue the vibration absorber in small sheets, while rolling it with a roller. The main thing here is not to overdo it so that the lid does not become too heavy.
• Apply the second layer of noise.
• If there are protruding tails and excess, cut off.
• For the purpose of anti-creaking, we cover the plastic parts of the trunk with a noise absorber.
• The last stage is the installation of the skin.

This completes the work on soundproofing the trunk lid. We will be glad if our tips are useful to you.
