Thread: I think I will call him Thomas

Has anyone done this and does it make a difference?

Appart from this, the wireless vibrating out of the dash and the bluetooth mic not working, all is well with Thomas.

Works a treat.. My hubby did it to mine a couple of weeks after I bought the car..

Just be sure that the spray gun you are using doesn't break and spray that black goop all over yourselves.. but that's another story..

Can they be bought in cans?

Septone Body Deadener - 400g - Supercheap Auto Australia
And Ye Shall Receive!
Not sure what the best application of it is but yes, It's available in a can as per your question

Think I will go with the brush and can method. Less can go wrong!!

Great colour, love it. Never seen one like this in WA

Yep I am pretty sire I've seen it (or something similar) in cans at either autobarn or super cheap..

edited because I just saw that your question was already answered.. but I think you will be surprised at the difference it makes with the noise of the stones flicking up under the car.. well worth the effort..

Note to self: When driving a Defender, must remember not to put wallet and sun glasses on dash in front of steering wheel with window down and corner hard to the left.
