Painting a subwoofer cone?

just a personal opinion, i know DD paints their caps with designs and anything you want on there, so it can't affect the speaker's performancde too much. it looks like they just paint theirs black stock anyway. but yea I guess i'd agree with everyone above that said you have to use proper painting techniques based on the material of the cone or cap you will be painting

Well i have an airbrush so i would definitely spray paint it. but i was looking at products.... what would be some good products to use

Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs.

More box builds

some cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches!

I'm with captain stupid.

a thin paint job should play no factor. my brother inlaw (though a douche bag) is an airbrush artist. he paint his type S 12. just becareful with the prep. tape stuff off good. chemical reaction is the main issue. its will either happen or not. no telling until your into it.
