Can't really help without more guidance.

What/where? Trunk, front wheelwells, rear wheelwell, interior ...

What year? (What month would help also - if early just post the VIN)

What plant?


Kind of last minute ...... isn't it ;)

Ok - the pattern was typical fairly heavy and tried to stay away from the edges by 6-8"

Sound deadener (that year and plant) was applied before the quarter was attached to the other panels (allowed for better and more coverage) so it travels from the rear end (taillight panel/quarter extension to the door latch post area

Remember to place some masking tape over the marker hole from the exterior side during this process

Hope this helps

Nothing on the trunk drop off. A similar product (a seam sealant) was applied to the seam between the wheelwell and the trunk side floors and more sealant was used on the floor to side floor sections, the side floor sections and the rear panel below the taillight panel, then the taillight panel to rear panel
