SeconD skin Product REVIEW

[Kovemaster559 1]

well i was extremely shocked from the product i got . this stuff is bullet prof. upon arrival the deadner right away feels like high quality deadner. I compared it next to the edead v1. other deadners i have installed in my life were dynamat extreme as well .

here it goes. upon arrival the deadner is bullet prof. when i say bullet proff i mean this stuff is very high grade deadner. i have never messed with anything as good as this stuff. its very nice and thick yet soft to form. i disected the product to compare it to the edead

the edead is very flimsy it folds very easy and is about the same thick ness of the damplifier pro but the damplifier pro is much less flexible and feels like the butyl is much better and much more packed in. here are some pics of the disection of the products the right hand side is edead and the left hand is second skin

if you notice that the left can(damp) is less crinkled then the right can(edead)

after the can i desided to gut both product the edead came off relativly easy but it still was not easy to come off . the second skin gave me trouble i had to use a razor to cut some of the butyl off

here is the aftermath after i dissected both products. again left is second skin right is elemental design

the left you can see the foil is very durable compared to the edead foil, its still crikled and the edead is thiner and not as strong as well as the butyl. the butyl retains it shape and is very adhessive

the end result is Second skin is by far the best i have seen cant wait to get the time of day to do my doors. this isnt a bash on edead just a side by side review. against dynamat extream id rather buy SS only because i think the product preety much sells it self. again if you want to do the job right go SS it wont fail you and the results are amazing

wiat, so you used the regular edead v1? or the v1se2? if not get the v1se2, i have tons of it, actually the roll i have has been sitting in the garage all winter long.

i would like to do a review on damp pro and v1se2, and it wont be biased cause edead has a bad rep and second skin does not. and i am in no way out to bash second skin, just to prove that edead is not cheap and it works perfectly.

Really? It does? What happens in 6 months when it melts off body panels?

There's no comparison with Damplifier Pro. eDuh doesn't make a product that has SS's vibration reducing characteristics.

well mines is still in tact for almost 2 years, and it has not melted off. and my question was not answered, was it v1 or v1se2? and i am not saying edead is up to par with second skin. just saying its not crap, and most of the people that talk chit about it never had it, they just jumped on the bandwagon of nuthuggers and bashed it even more.

if someone has a piece, a small piece of damp pro and want to see a review, send me a pm and i will put both to the test. a non biased review!!

Agreed. Ive used the older edead v1 in 2 different cars over the last 5 years and never had a problem. I'll keep using it until im given a reason not to. Matter of fact im going to order some more(edead 120 and some teklite) for my new truck within the month. Ive heard great things about 2nd skin as well and im sure it does a great job, but ill stick with edead for now.

i like the newer edead products. i was sorting through some online searches and saw they used rebadged asphalt peal n seal type of stuff before, but their stuff out now (i used v1se2, and now have edead45 and 80) is top notch imo. for the price, you can't go wrong. it sticks like a mofo, and is definitely not asphalt based. i personally like the thinner alum. layer and more pliable properties. nice review to compare products though, but let us know which version it was (edead)

Me too, and just so that we are clear, I know Damplifier is the best out there, not taking anything away or trying to prove anything bad about them. Just want to prove that eDead is not cheap, thats it.

Who are you talking too?

Exaclty, people are referring to a 4 yr old test, maybe longer. Also this review just said that Damplifier is better all around (whcih we know is true), but looks to me like the eDead is still in tact and hasnt moved.

Kslice always has good things to say about anything Ben makes and it is usually only for emotional reasons.

Uh nope. Only ED gear i have is a 13av.2 and edead. Both products have been solid for me. When have i ever mentioned Ben and/or my like or dislike for him? You seem more obsessed with him and ED then anyone i've seen on a forum...every post regarding ED there is a mod in it flaming them.

this review doesn't even compare how well they deaden the car, just which is thicker and holds up after being taken off, which doesn't make sense since you wouldn't ever take it out.

i've never used a product like this but will need to soon so can't bash either all I know is damplifier is considered the best and edead is considered to be horrible..
