New Acoustic Damping Adhesive from Green Glue

http://www.markertek.com

Markertek News Channel coverage of Green Glue acoustic damping adhesive. Green Glue is a constrained layer damping system, which as a damping material is sandwiched between two other rigid materials such as two sheets of drywall or any other porous building material. Damping occurs when the viscoelastic center of the "sandwich" is sheared. Green Glue works effectively against any impact or airborne noise control problem.

Green Glue can be used over any existing wall, floor or ceiling by simply adding another layer of material. No rolling, painting or troweling is necessary. Just open the tube and apply in a random pattern. With a fast and easy installation, anybody can soundproof a room with Green Glue.

dampening

present participle of damp·en (Verb)

Verb:

Make slightly wet: "the fine rain dampened her face".

Make less strong or intense: "nothing could dampen her enthusiasm".

See the second definition. Google is a thing, you know.

@matics19 No, it can't. DAMPING is the word for that. Dampening means making slightly wet.

[matics19]

@donepearce Dampening can also refer to a reduction of intensity, so it makes sense as well.

[donepearce]

It is DAMPING, not dampening. Unless he is spraying water on it, of course.

The glued tile also has steel inlets holding it to the wood, meaning the sound is transfered directly to the wood frame, yet the green glue has a black rubber bands holding it to the inlets. Not saying green glue doesn't work, but just saying that the mounts are making the difference even more pronounced. To be fair they should of used the same for both.

It's better to stagger your walls. Green glue is very expensive and I can still hear my neighbors. I used three tubes of green glue per each dry wall sheet.

Air or space is still better.

I am very interested in this product simply so I can skip the track channels and Cleats to Isolate and create a floating wall, it would save me some money for sure. I was wondering If I was to still use the age old tried and true meathod of using sheer mass and installing either 1/4-1/2" MDF over all of my walls and celing with still possibly home made "Z cahnnel wood strips for an outside covering of drywall if this could be OK for a good Home studio, and kill of volume of drums and such.

How long have you had the GG for? I heard it takes 30 days to cure. Also, How thick are your drywalls? Did you Isolate and noise seal the outlets and light cans? Use a hat channel? Did you do your ceiling and floors too?? I am interested in GG but your comment makes me hesitant. How much of the GG stuff did you use?

gilbertbuttos works for the company he is promoting.

Green Glue has four times the damping capacity of the other brand, meaning you have to use four times the volume of the other to match the damping capacity of Green Glue. See tthe independent laboratory data.

Same street price, also.
