Second Skin New Stuff
The as yet still Far-Less-Famous-Than-It-Oughta-Be Second Skin sound deadening products stable has just expanded with a very specific set of stuff. Here’s what they wanted to tell you all about….
Second Skin Audio UK are proud to announce the release of two new exciting products for 2010. Damplifier Pro Black and SPL Tiles.
Damplifier Pro Black:
Second Skin Audio’s highly acclaimed Damplifier Pro sound deadening now comes with a unique anodized black foil, rather than a silver foil. Second Skin have also increased the thickness of this foil from 6 mils to 6.5 mils for added strength, and better vibration damping!
Damplifier Pro is Second Skin Audio’s best vibration damping mat. This ‘Constraint Layer’ damper is designed for classic and modified car builders & car audio competitors and is the most aggressive and best performing sound deadener they produce.
One layer of Damplifier Pro can yield as much sound damping results as three layers of some competitors’ products. When performance and value are a concern, there is no other product that will deliver like Damplifier Pro.
– New 6 mil thick black foil
– .60 lbs per square foot
– 2.0mm total thickness
– High temperature Butyl adhesive
– Higher Rubber content – Lower filler content 
SPL Tiles:
The new Second Skin Audio SPL Tiles are designed for the real bass fanatics. Not everyone needs these little gems, but those that do will notice a huge increase in vibration damping and energy containment.
These SPL Tiles are the most effective vibration reducing product Second Skin sell. Simply peel and stick them on the sheet metal of your car and immediately kill structure-borne noise and increase the performance of your audio system.
With the thickest foil in the industry, the SPL tiles are certain to increase your car stereo’s audio output, and kill more vibrations than anything remotely similar.
– The Industry’s thickest and strongest foil.
– The Industry’s highest rubber content.
Second Skin SPL Tiles are not a mass loader or a heavy tar board. Rather, they are a Constraint Layer Viscoelastic Damper that converts the vibrational energy in to low level heat. This conversion of energy makes it 300% more efficient than traditional mass-loading tar boards and asphalt mats while weighing half as much!
Damplifier Pro Black and SPL Tiles will be available in the UK in late December from the distributors,
Car Audio Direct.

Drives you freakin’ Spacky after five minutes, is all….
I have been heaving many boxes of speakers (CM Series from B&W) and decorations and not yet filled the MTX woofer in its cavernous box but promise I will. One really hot snippet is that I might be getting out to ‘Vegas after all for the CES. I will of course keep you informed as despite all the doom and gloom there will be some wonderful cars there.
All that and doing a bit of BBC Radio 2 last week. I was called up about a trucker who wants to match mass to cube and carry forty four tonnes of crisps in a double trailer 85 feet long. He was trying to force a test case and I was kinda anti. The police stopped him from getting his own way and simply barred his road-train from use on the highway. So he was on the phone and I was in the studio and as I objected, this man said, “There’s always going to be a ****** in every woodpile.” I was struck actually dumb. Jeremy Vine talks to producer while this prize specimen of mankind witters on with, “Well, OK, there’s going to be an Adam in every woodpile….”
But by then though, the cannon was loose and I ended up doing two hours in a BBC cab for two minutes of radio as Mr. Vine issues a formal BBC apology. But I did meet Noddy Holder in the waiting area so it wasn’t all pointless. But it’s still excuses!
