394 mil 21 sqft

My 2000 Toyota Camry LE's OEM Hood heat shield insulation/deadener started deteriorating and pieces of it being peeled off so i decided for a DIY replacement project and bought this Abahub 236mil 4x6 (16sqft - measured first the size of my OEM Hood heat shield as there comes options in sizes). The package came at a very good condition nicely packed inside a plastic and rolled. I inspected the product as there were some reviews about damage/ripped aluminum foil and I am glad mine came in without a damage. Carefully unroll the sheet on a flat surface ( i used my garage floor) and gently flatten the surface (aluminum side facing the ground to prevent damage) and once evenly flat, flip the sheet aluminum now facing up and let it rest and prep for cutting to size matching the OEM from the car. I used sharpie pen to mark the holes and exact size to cut and I just used a medium size office scissor (very easy cut) don't use box cutter it would create a tear to the insulation padding and rip off the aluminum if dragged. There were 11 spots i marked for the location of the round push in clips (when i removed the 11 clips all of them broke and no longer usable but i always keep many clip parts for my vehicles). I was only able to get 4 out of 11 push clips to match the holes when i applied the insulation to the hood (not to worry, the backing adhesive will do the job to hold it together. OEM does not have backing adhesive, it was hold in place by the 11 push clips to the hood) I started from the top which matches the exact location of the top 3 holes allowing me to work without an extra pair of hands. I didn't push the new round clips just halfway and enough to hold the insulation sheet allowing me to access and gently peel off the backing adhesive cover to expose the adhesive part of the sheet. Worked my way from top slowly applying pressure to stick to the hood back surface and making sure the insulation sticks to the surface making sure there is no gap/air. Tip: if during the install, you accidentally damage or rip off a part of the aluminum heat shield, you can simply patch it with an industrial grade aluminum tape (commonly used in HVAC install/repairs). Ultimately, this product can be to cut to size, easy to install with enough thickness and insulation for heat and reducing engine sound/noise when driving the vehicle. I highly recommend, this product won't disappoint you.

I've used this on a UTV to help with sound reduction and it does work but it's just a step in the right direction. Using it inside a van conversion to cover the wheel wells and it works for that to. It seems to hold up under the heat as well.

Used on a semi and worked amazingly. Very durable and price was perfect.

This product did exactly what I wanted it to do. I used it to make a new under hood heat shield that wasn’t as tasty and useful to varmints since the OEM Honda one was made from a nice nesting material. Hopefully foil and rubber will do the trick. Size was just slightly longer than ordered, which was great because I needed 58” and it left me plenty to make my cutout. I do wish I bought a thicker one although I don’t know if it would really help more. It was easy to cut with ordinary scissors but a thicker one might require a sharp utility knife or high quality scissors. I had no issues with the foil tearing. I also used aluminum HVAC tape in certain areas and could have used that to cover any tears had they been created. I stretched the material out after unrolling it and before tracing and cutting. Material might hold up to a lighter but did not take long to engulf when using a torch (see video). The adhesive is good, but I wouldn’t use that alone to hold it in the application I used it for. I bought some oversized retention clips and between the adhesive and the clips I feel comfortable it will stay put.

Good.

Make sure that you have this where you want it before sticking it down. It sticks well, but if you need to pull it off to reposition it, it will rip and leave part of the mat. It does stick very well, so hopefully I will never have to remove it, otherwise it will be a big mess. I haven't run the engine yet to see if the noise level is reduced, but hopefully it will lower it.

Good product good delivery

I purchased this for a heat shield under the passenger seat of my 2010 Polaris XP900 as the seat gets extremely hot while being operated. So far on short trips, the product has worked extremely well with the seat being warm and not hot! The product is very maleable, but also extremely sticky; so it’s important to make sure you’re sure on you placement before pressing it down. Overall, I am extremely pleased with this product and the price I paid for it!

Quality of product not good upper aluminium foil tear out

Lo instale en un auto antiguo y fue muy útil. Redujo el ruido exterior significativamente

Pretty good universal size, cut to size and was easy to apply. It is so sticky that you will have some on your hands. Require little skill to cut and install

It's resolved my purpose for which I bought and till now it's working fine
