In my experience with a punctured foam surround. I cut a patch from an old T-shirt. Then I applied silicone to the patch enough to make it tacky to the touch. Applied the patch to the inner side of the foam surround. Then I added silicone on top of the patch and spread it evenly over the repaired area. The puncture was hardly visible if at all from the front of the surround. The material from the T-shirt & the silicone combination held it all together and worked flawlessly. Hope this helps..

@@EXOcontralto I am getting ready to try to recone/re-surround some of my JL subs.

@ridethewagon69 5 лет назад

I know this is an old video. But I bought some subs used and realized upon better inspection someone havmd driven a screwdriver through a surround near the gasket. Last night I watched your video and happened to have the materials in my garage...it works 100%. Easy fix. And I opemted to keep it clean and just do an inside foam repair..thanks for the tips and keep the videos coming!

I came here looking for ideas to fix my 5.5 inch 100W midrange, where the part you repaired in the video is almost all deteriorated. Don't know why. But here I learned from you about the foam at WalMart, and your favorite glue. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

@AWIERD1 2 года назад

E6000 is one of the best glues/patch materials for subwoofers or speakers. It's extremely durable and can stretch amazingly well and I've used it to repair many speakers and subs. So yeah I'll "salvage" audio equipment from behind my local car audio shop and in a attempt to discourage such actions alot of the time they puncture the cones. But yeah E6000 9/10 times does the trick alone ...

Recently ordered a second kicker CompC and another box for the truck, got the kicker for half price because it has a very small cut in the surround, I'm gonna try my good quality electrical tape as a bandaid first, if not I will definitely put this method to use. I only came here for help with the cut but your intro made me laugh my ass off, good mix of humor and advice, love this channel. Can't wait to get this dual sub setup going, thanks Exo!

@LionWithTheLamb 7 лет назад

If you have a Dollar Tree nearby you can get the foam and the crazy glue all purpose adhesive for a buck each except it's a small container. From what I can tell Crazy Glue All Purpose Adhesive, Shoe Goo, and E6000 glue are the same thing.

@samwoodward9817 7 лет назад

Stepside1986 funilly enough, from model working I can say that nail glue from salon stores works incredible. And it's quick drying so you can use it in a hurry like at a show or something. Just putting in my personal opinion, though.

@randygerlach9096 6 лет назад

Samuel Woodward salon nail gloe is just CA glue and it is ok for temporary fix but will fail because it dries out the material and eventually will cause a bigger hole because it will tear the material overtime..

@fazooleq1523 10 месяцев назад

I literally did exactly this and poked a hole in my surround with a power screwdriver. Maybe not a subwoofer but for lighter applications (mine is a 6" guitar amp woofer), I found a simpler lighter solution as well:" I remembered how insanely strong wet suit cement was and you could use that but if you can't find that, there is liquid electrical tape, brush on several thin layers - its extremely strong and totally flexible. And it doesn't add a big "patch" to the surround. Again, a subwoofer may need something stronger like your patch - but for less aggressive applications, give this a try.
