Posted January 2, 200916 yr Okay guys I need some help.I wanna order some speaker box carpet for my box but I have no idea how much I need...My box is 30"wide, 24"deep, 13"high.How many yards will I need?What kind of adhesive should I use?
January 2, 200916 yr You will need just a hair over 2 yards, so you will probably need to order 3 yards to be on the safe side.Make sure the carpet is at least 40" wide.I use 3M Super 77 spray adhesive, works great.
January 2, 200916 yr Admin 3M is great glue, but if you want the absolute best glue i've ever found it's a second skin glue. Not even sure if they list it on their site, but I was amazed by it!
January 2, 200916 yr Are you positive I will only need 3 yards?YesCarpet length = 2x depth + 2x height + a little extra to overlap to make the seam.so 2x24 + 2x13 = 74 in74/36 = 2.06 yrdsWidth is your box width + height so your carpet needs to be at least 43" wide but I usually get the stuff that is 54" wide anyway.
