The use of ABM brand products makes it possible to significantly reduce noise and improve travel comfort. Soundproofing a car door with ABM brand products is an important step towards increasing driving comfort and reducing cabin noise.

How to soundproof a car door? Step-by-step instructions
1. We start by removing the sides, without damaging the catches, using the appropriate kit for removing plastics in the car.
2. We remove the protective film.
3. We degrease the inner side with extraction gasoline.
4. From the inside of the door, the outer wall, where the sheet metal is located for soundproofing we use butyl mat ABM Professional 2.0 mm for better effect we recommend ABM Xtreme 2.0 mm.
We do not tape the reinforcement!
5. We leave a gap of 1 cm from the bottom to allow water to drain.
6. After applying the butyl mat we use an installation roller, we level with the roller to get rid of the air that is left, longer is preferred to reach hard to reach places.
7. Then we soundproof the middle part of the door, using ABM Professional 2.0 mm or ABM Xtreme 2.0 mm butyl mat. We are careful when soundproofing the bolt space and the sound system.
8. We soundproof the side from the inside with 6 or 10 mm or 13 mm rubber foam. If there is room to install a thicker foam, we prefer to do it for a better effect.
9. We cover the edge of the side with 2.5 x 3 mm rubber tape to nullify any sound of creaking plastic
We do not recommend using rubber foam to soundproof the door from the inside, for easier access to the door!
