teardrop Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
