The stuff I applied to the inside of my driver’s door sagged and interfered with the window winding mechanism but has been fine since the re-do years ago. Not a liquid that gets applied, B-Quiet, Peel & Seal and the others are a 3-layer product; foil outer layer, tar-like substance that does all the work, and a wax paper backing that peels off before application. This task is not rocket science, but it will test your patience and bendability.

Quite happy. I also used it on the front area under dashboard; unfortunately, this sheet metal area must get pretty warm from front radiator blow by, and as a result, evidence of "tar" dripping down on the sides into footwells. I clean it up, and it later re-appears. But, even then, I have had no "tar" odors. It's been in place over 12 years. And yes, very significant road noise reduction, so worth it to me. >>> >>> >>>> On Friday, April 1, 2022, 06:41:43 PM PDT, Gil Ngai <eyebawlgil@gmail.com> wrote: >>> >>> What is roof patch? can you send a link? >>> Do you mean roofing tar? >>> >>> ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• >>> *GIL NGAI* • *I TELL GOOD STORIES* >>> *filmmaker • DP • **chief storyteller • instructor* >>> * www.dayonemedia.ca <http://www.dayone-media.com/> * >>> >>> >>>> On Fri, Apr 1, 2022 at 6:49 PM Stephen Grisanti <bike2vcu@yahoo.com> wrote: >>> >>>> I did years ago on our ‘87 Westy, had to order directly from the source in >>>> Alberta.
