Spl lab.

You have to buy the sensor still.

Yeah I just realized that, their sensors are pretty reasonably priced.. Might have to get one, no one here has a decent meter. Last competition I went to several people were supposedly doing 155s with 2 12s in a trunk... Not sure the power but the meter was way off.

Just got an additional 50 CLD tiles from Don at sound deadener showdown.

I love dealing with him.

Funny, he told me it's been over 3.5 years that I've been ordering from him. Time flies.

Well see how far this gets me then reorder whatever I need after that

Playing around a little.

I will say the blue is probably not going to happen for half the truck.

1. It's 2x the price of standard colors.

2. Coverage is about half of what o get per can of standard colors.

3. It's a damn mess. This shit over sprays the whole garage.

What sucks is the blue actually looks good and the colors seem to go well together. Just my .02

I'm going on Ameritrade and buy 1,000 shares of plastidip. I'm gonna make a killin in dividends by the time a color is picked.

It's fun huh?

Actually just bought a sample can of this. If I like it in person, I'll buy a sprayer and gallon product and see what happens.

Blaze is what's on in the picture. It's growing on me. Only reason I want to try the flex is because its supposed to cover better. 6 cans shipped for 38 bucks isn't bad either.

Is it too early for a 'do over'.

Either way, it's all coming out.

Subs and all the tape around the enclosure is out also. Without increasing power, I need to gain at least 1.5 db somewhere.

Ironically no, but sound deadener is.

And for me, above the window line either.

Good stuff. Thick, sticks well foil is thinner than the sound deadener showdown tiles. So it's easier to work with. Comes in big ass sheets too.
