Vibration Damper

Originally formulated for undercoating, Spectrum™ acts as an excellent alternative to traditional sound deadening mats, effectively damping loud metal vibrations with its water-based viscoelastic polymer. It is lighter than mats at equivalent thicknesses, with a recommended application of 2-3mm for optimal performance. Spectrum™ offers enhanced durability for extreme environments and can be used as an undercoating. It is waterproof, rustproof, chemical-resistant, non-toxic, and odorless once cured. The material is also self-extinguishing, meeting FMVSS 302 standards, and is temperature-rated up to 400°F. Application requires temperatures above 50°F for the initial 24-hour dry period. Shiny or waxy surfaces may require a primer for proper adhesion. Application is flexible, allowing use with a brush, roller, or spray gun. For best results, apply in 1mm layers, waiting 30-60 minutes between coats for the material to cure and change color from blue to black. Cleanup with water is effective within 30 minutes of application. Full curing takes 24-36 hours before interior components can be reinstalled, and 7-10 days before painting or applying a bed liner. The deadening properties continue to improve for up to 7 days post-application. Spectrum™ contains rust inhibitors and dries to a seamless finish, offering excellent water resistance, making it suitable for marine applications as well. While durable, it is not a bed liner and can be damaged by heavy impact. It has a shelf life of one year when unopened and 30 days once opened. For wheel well applications, approximately 2 gallons are recommended for all four wells on any vehicle.
