  9. Atomic Ap/spl 12" $250 Plus Shipping

    in For Sale: Car audio related equipment only

    Posted

    Ok I have here an Atomic AP/SPL 12" This sub was used for roughly a month and a half. It reads 1.4 on each coil (dual coil). The sub is rated at 1k but can handle 2k daily with no sweat. I ran it off an Incriminator Audio 20.1. The gains were properly set and the sub was never abused. It is still in perfect working condition and no cosmetic flaws. I traded it with violence for my JL8W7. When he originally bought this sub it cost him $315 each if I recall correctly.

    I'm looking to get 250 plus shipping out of it. The price is NOT set in stone so PM me and we can make a deal. I need this gone quick!!! I have plenty of ref's so don't worry. I need to money to get a new sub!!

    Well deffenetly screwed up the box :furious: I'm pretty sure putting the rubbing compound on is what screwed me. I think I should be able to put more layers of paint back on it and just sand it again. If I do that, I will have a good smooth base to work from. Words can't describe how smooth it feels right now but it just looks like total crap. I'll let you all see for yourself...

    I think repainting the box is my best bet, even though I really don't want to. The whole box does need more paint plus I burned through the paint in a couple places. I will be repainting tomorrow I guess. I'm thinking this will be the best bet...

    Pic's will follow as I start back over again...

    Thanks for the replys guys!!! I put another 2+ hours in this morning with no really noticeably change. I just have so many pits that need sanding it outs getting frustrating!!! I've come to this conclusion, Pre-paint prep is the most IMPORTANT step!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll do some more later today. If i get some good results I'll post some pics...

    It deffenetly takes a long time, and a lot of patience! lol. When I first started off I was moving quickly and expecting results right off the bat. Lets just say that at first I was not impressed but, after an hour or so worth of sanding and then putting the finish glaze on, my patience deffenetly paid off. I should be able to finish the top up by tomorrow, and will take finished pics then.

    I'm hoping to start building boxes and doing these "Black Mirror" paint jobs for anyone who is interested. I'm also hoping to sell these boxes as well.

    "Black Mirror Builds" Thinking that will be the name I'll use if I start doing builds for people. Has I nice ring to it, least I think so....lol

    I'm not done, not by a long shot! I still need to work on the top some more plus I have all the sides yet to do. I still even have some painting but, that will all happen later. This project will probably take another 2 weeks or so to finish depending on how much I work on it.

    Let me know what you guys think of my progess so far...

    Ok guys, here are some more pics. I am making some progress as you will see. The first 5 pic's are all second coat. You can see that they still need a lot of work but are slowly getting better... After the first 5 pics you will see the result of close to an hour's worth of sanding with 2500 grit paper. I went into town and picked up some 2500 and some rubbing compound and all I have to say is WOW!!! I'll stop talking and let the pictures explain for them selves.

    Ok I started wet sanding. Here are so pic's of my progress....

    Pre-sanding this was last hit with 600 grit and then had 2 layers of paint put on..

    Wetsand1.jpg

    Another shot of pre-sanding.

    Wetsand2.jpg

    Plenty of water and 1500 grit paper.

    Wetsand3.jpg

    Its hard to see but the top has been finished. About 8-10 mins worth of sanding...

    Wetsand4.jpg

    Another after-sanding shot...

    Wetsand5.jpg

    This is how I start off the wet sanding. Water is just spread over the box and then I use the sprayer to get a good coat of water on the box. Next setup is to start sanding...

    Wetsand6.jpg

    I kept a constant spray of water when sanding so that the sander was never on just dry paint. I'm letting them dry off a little right now. That and I don't have any rubbing compound yet (it'll be here this afternoon). More pics will follow as I continue with the process so stay tuned!! I'm hoping for some good results....
