We saw the attempt at "deadener" in the doors along the outer skin (the stuff that I just peeled off).
Thanks for confirming. It would act as if thyou stick a weight in the cone of a speaker (roughly speaking). It would change the frequency and amplitude of the sound.

Isn't the dynomat effect also the weight that adds to the panel? the thicker and heavier the better?

I can imagine they might have equipment to measure a "sound heatmap" to be able to determine in which places apply the sealant.
