Has anyone got any experience of a product called Skinz?

I have no experience of Skinz but their poor website would bother me.

I have soundproofed several vehicles with Silent Coat products with fantastic results. Mt 2013 Volvo V70 D5 is quieter than my 70 plat Mercedes E400d. Far more reliable as well!

I can recommend these guys based on my experiences.

The last time I had the door panels off, I wedged a few small cubes of high density plastic foam between the various struts/window rails and the outer door panel. The theory is that their bracing effect reduces that panel's resonance; acoustically it turns that door's central antinode into a node. Plus it helps reduce any rattles in those door components.
This strikes me as more effective than a stick-on (or spray-on) layer; which just adds mass to the panel, without significantly modifying its movement.
It's not the sort of crumbly foam that easily fragments; it's the slightly shiny, waxier" stuff, that often protects higher end AV goods in transit. Robust, but compressible.
Obviously this regime doesn't work on the car's other panels.
