babadono Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I think I would try Goo Gone. You may still have to touch up the black paint depending on how aggressive you get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 1979 LaScalas are still going strong.... hard to wear them out. If they're working, I'd leave them alone. Now, as for the goo...... you have a number of ideas above. I used a putty knife on mine. My gasket had turned to a sticky mess.... kept drivers, installed new gasket. Hi my k-33p are still working properly. Also I measured the ohms and I have 3.3 ohms on both woofer. However a month ago I had the opportunity to get 1 Crites woofer from a friend for a trial to compare it against my k-33p and... wow what a difference. Any additional bass I can get from my khorn is welcome. That is way I now bought a pair to swap with my k-33p. I suspect that I can hear the difference of a 50 year old woofer agains a brand new with theoretically the same specs. ill use the putty knife and new gasket. It’s just that with only the putty knife I can’t really clean completely the surface which is my goal before apply the new gasket. thanks AB Edited April 9, 2020 by Alberto Bianchi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberto Bianchi Posted April 9, 2020 Author Share Posted April 9, 2020 I’ll send the motor board pics With the tar material this weekend when I’m going to approach the cleaning and if I achieve to get it right the result. attached the speakers now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto Bianchi Posted April 9, 2020 Author Share Posted April 9, 2020 By the way I put some anti scratch pads below the khorn (you can see in the pic) and that killed the bass. I’m planning to cut an area rug and put it under the khorn flipped so that the rubber bottom seals the base of the bass bin and the soft side against the floor allow easy movement of the speakers if needed. Anyone tried this? for the back and top area I’m using pipe isolation. some pic attached of the rug and the pipe isolation. am I missing something? best AB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktate Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I would just use furniture GRIPPERS on the bottom. Be sure to use foam seal on the bass bin corners and horizontal part of bass bin. I got some pool noodles the other day on sale and they seem to hold up better than the pipe foam I used before. OH I see you already got some foam on there...lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMcD Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 FWIW. You may recall the old trick for removing candle wax from a table cloth. Put down brown paper bag material and apply a clothes iron. WMcD 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMcD Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 A warm (below steam setting) clothes can be used to remove labels/stickers from cardboard boxes and envelopes. However most stickers with machine printed information are made of thermal paper and will turn black because of the heat. Therefore copy or photograph any needed info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the lumps out, leave the sticky, return hatch. It's not like anyone is going to see it nor it's going to hurt anything (as long as it doesn't prevent a good seal) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
