Carpeting a box. Output Loss?

[teardrop]

We gained 0.5 dbs by painting the box inside, but i´m talking with a lot of "base" and wax, box ended up been smooth as hell on the inside, just like a car, we haven´t painted it on the outside, gonna do it very soon an see if we gain some more

did you wet sand and buff like a car or just buff the paint

ya inside makes sense basically same principles as resining the inside and sanding it down to make it smooth..

Yes sir, just easier and faster, it´s more expensive tho

wet sand and buff, all the things so the paint ended up just like a car´s paintjob, didn´t do it myself tho, we took the box to a friend´s shop and he made the job for free
