FAQs
What is the primary purpose of Nomad sound deadening sheets?
Their primary purpose is to reduce noise and vibration in vehicles by dampening metal panels. This includes rattles, road noise, and engine sounds.
Are these sheets suitable for all types of vehicles?
While marketed for van builds, they are suitable for any vehicle where reducing interior noise and vibration is desired, provided they can be applied to bare metal surfaces.
How much area do these 20 sheets cover?
The 20 pre-cut sheets provide a total coverage of 1.875 square meters.
Do I need any special tools for installation?
No, typically only sharp scissors or a utility knife for cutting and your hands to press the sheets down are required. A roller can be helpful for ensuring maximum adhesion.
Can I install these sheets in cold weather?
Installation is recommended above 10°C. If necessary, gently warm the metal surface (not the sheet) to improve adhesion in colder conditions.
Will the material produce an odor?
No, the premium butyl rubber core is engineered to be odorless, even in varying temperatures.
Are these sheets flammable?
No, the material has been tested to ISO 3795 for vehicle interior flammability and is considered fire retardant for automotive use.
Troubleshooting
Sheet not adhering well
Ensure the metal surface is thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Re-apply pressure to the sheet, ensuring all edges are firmly pressed down. Consider ambient temperature if below 10°C.
Difficulty cutting sheets
Use a sharp utility knife or heavy-duty scissors. For very thick cuts, multiple passes might be necessary.
Bubbles or wrinkles after application
Carefully peel back the affected section and re-apply, smoothing out the material as you go. If the adhesive has fully cured, small imperfections may be unavoidable but generally do not impact performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & Installation:
Surface Preparation: Ensure the metal surface is clean, dry, and free of grease, oil, and dirt. For best results, use an automotive degreaser.
Cutting: Use sharp scissors or a utility knife to cut the sheets to the desired size and shape.
Application: Peel off the protective backing and firmly press the adhesive side onto the prepared metal surface. Ensure good contact by rolling or pressing down firmly, especially around edges.
Temperature: Installation is recommended when ambient temperatures are above 10°C. If working in colder conditions, slightly warming the panel surface (e.g., with a heat gun on a low setting, *not* the sheet itself) can improve adhesion.
Compatibility:
Nomad sheets are designed for application on bare metal surfaces commonly found in van interiors, including steel and aluminum.
They are compatible with subsequent insulation and lining materials like foam, carpet, or wood panels.
Care:
Once installed, the sound deadening sheets require no ongoing maintenance.
Clean the vehicle interior as usual. Avoid harsh chemicals directly on the sheets, though they are designed to be durable.
