How to Insulate Your Car Hood Like a Pro

Remove the factory hoodliner. Although you won't need to reapply it, keep it intact for step 2.

Clean the metal hood with denatured alcohol thoroughly. Getting rid of any dust, dirt, and grime will make the material stick better and be more effective.

The adhesive is very strong, but we are always extra cautious when working under the hood. The last thing you want is for something to fall down onto the engine.

Damplifier Pro™ is a superior sound deadener great for deadening the vibrating metal, allowing you to have a clearer, crisper sounding engine. Even more than that, Damplifier Pro™ is excellent at reducing heat transfer at 100% coverage, a major problem for more powerful engines. Our box with 13.5 sq ft of material is all you'll need to get the job done right.

Use the existing liner to create an outline to cut your heat insulation material to size using a utility knife or scissors. Your hood will need anywhere from 12-20 sq ft of material depending on the vehicle you have. The kit has two options based on how much room you have and how many divots your hood has.

• Mega Block™: A premium thermal insulator (1/2” thick) and sound absorber. This is the best performing sound and heat insulation you can put under your hood. It works best on flatter hoods.
• Heat Wave Pro™: A 3/8” thick jute material that provides some sound absorption and good thermal insulation and is surrounded by a reinforced foil to reflect heat. This is our high performance, but most budget-friendly option with enough flexibility to get around all the curves.
• FireWall™ Ceramic Coating: A water-based, ceramic thermal insulation you can spray, brush or roll onto your hood to protect it from heat. Perfect for if you want to protect your hood while keeping the under hood looking factory. 1 gallon will allow you to cover the entire hood in 2-3 layers!
