Question Sound Deadener

I'm looking to buy the sound deadener for my 53, and was hoping someone here knew how many square feet are involved. I'm going to cover everything, from the top of the firewall to the roof including the inside of the doors. I don't want to buy too much, that stuff is NOT cheap. Just by figuring roughly in my head, I'm coming up with approximately 75 sq.ft.
Sound about right?

Thanks!

I think that you are close. On my 49 I did all of the areas that you are planning. I have not done the doors since they are not in final paint yet. I bought 2 of the dynamat kits which are 36 sq. ft. I have 2 sheets left (18" x 32") for the doors. I did considerably better buying online than places like Summit.

EDIT: I just checked thru Amazon. The price was under $140 for 36 sq. ft. with free shipping. That is about what I paid.

Thanks! That's where I'm looking as well. I figured I'd have to buy two, I was hoping I wouldn't have to buy three. If I ended up needing more Sq.ft. there are other companies that sell similar product for less, but going by the reviews, there's a good reason it sells for less.
