Cal Blacksmith Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I gave a half hearted search for this but things like work got in the way of my internet! As posted elsewhere, we had a flod of water through the house and while I did get some light vanier damge to the risers of my CW2s I can live with that but I just noticed last night that the grill of one speaker did it's job well and protected the woffer of my CW. There is a vertical rip through the fabric. I guess I really need to post pics but it is the coarse basket weave black fabirc. The vert tear extends through about 4 strands of the horizontial weave. It is not a real eysore as I have been looking at these speakers for 3 weeks and just saw the issue but now that I know about it, is there a way to stop it from getting worse or is replacement the only (best) way to go? [:S] I just thought of using a iron on fabric adheasive and a light fabric from the back to fuse the ends together, anyone think that is a viable option?

Turbox Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 What about a dab or two of Crazy glue? not alot, just enough so the thread doesnt pull back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 What about a dab or two of Crazy glue? not alot, just enough so the thread doesnt pull back? I agree with this. A small drop of super glue or crazy glue will harden in that fabric very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mighty Favog Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 If you start to get anal about it the grill material is always availble. I did my CW 1.5's seeing my wife didn't like the looks of the cain grills that came with them [^o)] (yes, I'm keeping them ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
