A protective film press using commercially available anti-graffiti film for the production of a multi-layer protective film. The invention provides a relatively simple and economical manufacturing device and method to produce a multi-layer protective film which has historically required expensive and complex methods and equipment. The protective film press comprising a frame chassis, a plurality of mounting assemblies detachably attached to the frame chassis, first and second motorized pull roller assemblies repositionably mounted on the frame chassis, a pair of pressure rollers that pneumatically press the anti-graffiti films into a vertically stacked multi-layer configuration, and at least one alignment roller repositionably mounted on the frame chassis. A preferred embodiment of present invention also includes means for controlling the speed at which the first and second motorized pull roller assemblies operate and also a means for providing pressure for the pair of pressure rollers.

An improved sound reducing panel is disclosed comprising a front porous sheet for enabling sound to enter into the sound reducing panel and a rear non-porous sheet. A sound absorbing member dissipates sound entering into the front porous sheet. A sound blocking member blocks sound from exiting from the sound absorbing member. A decoupling member reduces sonic vibration from being transferred from the sound blocking member to the rear non-porous sheet. One embodiment includes a drenching shield for inhibiting water from entering the sound absorbing member. Another embodiment includes a decorative or artistic image located on the sound reducing panel.
