Never used that for sound deadening. What we refer to as a milkshake is bondo and resin mixed together.

What is a milkshake in reference to sound deadedning?
How in your opinion, how should it be applied to A-pillars and mid bass kick pods?
My answer is lead shot, sand, and resin (for materials).
What do some of you have in mind?

Interesting...

Well at least my self this is what I'm going to do (even though my drivers and amps are smaller than yours)...

I'm going to start with Clay, inside the spheres and kick panels. For the A-pillars I'll use CLD Tiles with some Mat. Since my spheres are mechanically attach to the a pillars I'll isolate them with some Extruded Butyl Rope to prevent vibrations and try to reinforce the way the A-pillars attach mechanically to the chassis; because the speakers and deadening add a lot of weight to them.

The Clay idea I'm not sure if it works or not, I read it online and makes sense but you guys are the PROS here, I just feel like the Clay can be removed if doesn't work, some other epoxy/glue/resin combination may be the best way to go, some times trial an error is my best friend.

I think it can't be very rigid or stiff it should dampen the vibrations, be heavy and a little flexible to tolerate changes in temperature.

Well, that's what I think, if there is a better way to approach it, let me know I don't want to re-invent (H2O)
