Quiet the Ride: Sound Deadening for Classic Holden Builds with LizardSkin
July 19, 2025
Restoring a classic Holden is a labor of love—but driving one shouldn’t mean enduring a noisy, rattling ride. For owners aiming to preserve the look and feel of their vintage car while improving the driving experience, LizardSkin Sound Control offers a smart, spray-on solution to tame noise and vibration without compromising space or originality.
Why Sound Control Matters in Classic Cars
Classic vehicles weren’t built with modern comfort in mind. Bare metal panels, minimal insulation, and aging parts all contribute to an interior filled with road, engine, and tire noise. Over time, that can turn even the shortest drive into a tiring one.
LizardSkin Sound Control is a water-based, spray-on sound deadening coating engineered to reduce unwanted noise and vibration across the entire cabin. It adheres directly to metal and cures to a seamless, flexible barrier that helps transform your classic car into something you actually want to cruise in for hours.
The Right Tool for the Job
To ensure even coverage and optimal performance, LizardSkin Sound Control must be applied using the LizardSkin SuperPro Application Kit. This is not optional—our coatings are thick by design, and traditional paint guns or undercoating sprayers simply won’t cut it.
Included in the SuperPro Kit:
-
Sprayer
-
1 Quart Cup
-
Stir Paddle (attaches to drill)
-
Wet Mil Gauge
-
Application Instructions
The kit makes it easy to get professional-grade results in your own garage. Just connect the sprayer to shop air and apply the coating directly to a clean, dry, rust-free surface.
