In a few weeks I will be applying my brown bead that I have purchsed, and I was wondering is it better to cut it into small square/strips or is it better to try to keep it all one piece? If cutting small squares/strips I should over lap them a bit correct? Thanks in advance

You basically want it to fit into your car/truck, so cut them at the sizes needed and apply another layer of the brownbread if you can still hear rattles.

try to use bigger pieces, but don't force it.  Some spots will need a piece smaller than your hand, while others like the floor will let you use huge strips.  When you put it on you want to overlap about 1/4-1/2".  If you're doing more than one layer, run the brown bread perpendicular to the first layer.

You can do it either way. One thing to remember that a lot of people don't know is that you don't have to cover your entire car for it to be effective. You can cut it into squares and places it down as needed.

I was planning on just doing my trunk, trunk lid, and door panels and then after that see what I have left. I have 70sq ft.
