Always remember that rubberized undercoatings will retain moisture. Plus your still adding weight to the car. 1 gallon of that stuff probably weighs 15lbs? One small chip on the undercoating and moisture will enter and promote rust.

That little can won't give you anything in the way of soundproofing. I used almost a gallon to spray three coats in my trunk. Can't report on any results though as my car is down for turbo work.

With the Quietcoat I put 3 coats on as recommended and used a little over a 1/2 gallon to do the trunk. This made a dramatic difference in sound dampening.

For those of you who have used the QuietCoat, is application to the trunk enough, or do you plan on applying to more of the vehicle? Just trying to get an idea of how much total might be needed...so far, sounds like 1/2 to 1 gallon for the trunk alone. I'm contemplating applying it to my V8 Grand Cherokee as well.....wondering if I ought to think about the five gallon container?
