Would there be much different between silent coat 2mm and 4mm? I’ve seen a few posts regarding the 2mm saying it don’t really make much different to noise reduction

More weight in the van more weight you have to carry round.

It does make quite a bit of difference. I have used 2mm sheets on side panels, doors, roof and 3mm sheets on wheel arches. Will be using remaining 3mm sheets to soundproof footwells behind the seats.
