Viscoelastic Soundproofing Glue
QuietGlue® is the world’s best selling and highest performing viscoelastic soundproofing glue (over 25M square feet installed since 2003) for use in the construction of walls, ceilings, floors and other architectural elements. QuietGlue is ideal for hobbyists and do-it-yourselfers, as it can provide the lowest cost method of creating high STC walls for home theaters and other rooms when labor cost is not an issue.

How does it work?
QuietGlue® has been designed to dramatically improve damping across all audio frequencies, especially low frequencies at room temperatures, when compared to regular drywall or other soundproofing glues. When placed between sheets of drywall, QuietGlue forms a Constrained Layer Damped system (CLD). As acoustic energy hits this system, stress and strain forms at the shear layer, which requires work to be exerted by the limited acoustic energy, thus dissipating it (converting it to tiny amounts of heat). The result is a wall structure that can remove
75% to 95% more acoustic energy than regular drywall in similar configurations.

QuietGlue is an ultra-high damping viscoelastic construction adhesive for use as a glue layer between drywall, wood, or other combinations of materials where one or both layers are porous (such as wood to wood, wood to concrete, concrete to drywall, metal to drywall, drywall to drywall etc.). QuietGlue may be applied during construction, or after-market by homeowners or contractors to significantly increase the Sound Transmission Class of walls, floors, sound barriers, or ceilings by 10dB to 20dB. With 58oz (2-tubes) used between two layers of 5/8” drywall, single stud walls can provide results between STC 55 and STC 59 depending on configuration. QuietGlue is more effective and less expensive than other methods or glues. It absorbs noise and vibration within the structure and significantly reduces noise transmission and impact noise room to room.

QuietGlue is a construction glue and must be used between two layers of material (it is not a coating). QuietGlue is easy to use: apply glue randomly and uniformly to one surface with a tube or square-notched trowel. The glue will dry within 24 hours and create a high-tech viscoelastic constrained damping layer between the two layers.

QuietGlue is an aqueous-based acrylic polymer (no solvents), is nearly odorless, contains no ammonia, and ultra-low VOC’s (qualifies as a Zero-VOC product in all 50 states).
