jimjimbo Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) Remember us? Finally got the time and temperatures to do the Bondo, primer and Duratex (1st coat). Thought I would share the story (again) in photos from on the truck in my driveway to today...My corners are not as nice as some of you guys, but I'm gettin' the hang of it.... Thank you to all who offered advice and support. Will post more pics when drivers and horns are installed.

jimjimbo Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 So..............how did you like working with bondo? It was a little tricky, which I expected...took a couple of times to figure out the cream hardener proportion, and how long I had to work with it, but overall it worked well. Sanded down nicely, took the primer well, and the Duratex. Looking forward to putting on the second coat and really smooth everything out.

beeker Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 wow. simply outstanding! people buying new $10k speakers don't get me. People who buy junk and create a gorgeous pair of speakers do, and that makes me jealous. Vey nice job. Those are absolutely beautiful.
