Dave A Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 4 hours ago, MacWorks said: Thank you @Dave A Is there a danger in using a very strong velco and running the risk of bending the grill board? Well I doubt it but you don't need strong to hold a grille on. Don't complicate this as it is simple. No paint on grille, just glue away. No fancy velcro and no specific laid out placement as each grille will stay with the speaker it was mounted on. You color the wood base where the veneer has been damaged that is exactly what it will look like and if that does not matter to you all is well. For future resale people will beat you up over it.

A light application should not effect value of the Cornwall's ...right? nope , here is a Cornwall IV with textured paint on the motorboard , a light , even coat - the grille uses tiny NEO magnets , bye bye velcro - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacWorks Posted July 24, 2021 Author Share Posted July 24, 2021 So I must say the the Watco Furniture Rejuvinator did a nice job on the motor board and I don't need any Duratex ( but good to know about). The Pics do not capture it but it looks like someone tried to wipe the bottom of the woofer on the left speaker. Is there anything that would be advised for care on these woofers?

CWOReilly Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 A soft to medium paint brush to carefully dust them. Never liquids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there anything that would be advised for care on these woofers? Speaker cement dries like that and I have used it before for minor tears, like cats clawing, on the accordion surround. I also see the dust cap gone so there are indications it has been repaired. Can't hide a shredded dust cap but you can remove it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacWorks Posted July 25, 2021 Author Share Posted July 25, 2021 Thanks, @Dave A - is there a picture of the dustcap that you can refer me to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave A Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Look at the CW4 pic Randy posted above and the dome shape in the middle of the woofer is a dust cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave A Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Wishing I had an old woofer here to look at as after posting a couple of comments and deleting them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
