Graham Radish Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 (edited) Well, it seems simple polystyrene 10mm thick sheets laid on the baseboard has totally eliminated all running noise, cork didn't work but this stuff is magic even after ballasting. Also the added benefit of insulation. Edited May 29, 2019 by Graham Radish Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinzaboy Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Good idea! I bet that thin polystyrene you can get on a roll to insulate walls would work too. Tim 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm. Interesting, though rather annoying to read this having just committed to 3mm cork. C'est la vie ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
