emperorjj1 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 I wouldnt use to seal boxes personally to be honest. I wish this product came out a little sooner because this is exactly what i needed to reseal my lights after doing a retrofit. I basiclly spent double the money for a inferior butyl product that im using now. a couple good uses off the top of my head: sealing tail or headlights after custom modifications resealing the stock guard on the door after installing speakers, crossovers & tweeters any plastic or metal installation of speakers and tweeters can be used in conjunction with Damplifier to seal larger gaps in sheet metal (example in my old car the front firing subs had alot of acoustic cancellation and needed an air tight seal between the cabin and trunk. In between the rear deck and the trunk there were several largeish holes in the sheet metal that when covered with only damplifier wasnt very stable as is much less with 150db of pressure once everything would be complete. Since this was before this product was out what i ended up doing was basiclly getting a sheet of damp pro peeling off the foil layer and putting the butly into a ball. then rolling ball into the desired rope shape to then be shoved in the corner of the trunk and covered with damp pro) 1 Quote J.

mrd6 Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) ...specifically the word removable. Have you ever tried to remove secondskin? I would think this product would work better for more permanent applications. Haha and now i'm off to find a reason to order some...

emperorjj1 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) using it as a gasket to seal something would work well but ya if it needs to be removalbe then you may want to look else where. My whole thing was just with the product sticking to wood. Most people make boxes out of wood and most of those are MDF. If MDF is one or both of the surfaces that need to be sealed then this may not be the best solution for that specifically. Metal and plastic is really what you would focus using this on. I havent tried this with this particular butyl but you can remove butyl with heat. just how well and how possible it is to re use it is debatable Edited September 7, 2015 by emperorjj1 1 Quote J.

Joseph Chambers Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Just food for thought: I went to your website to look for this product. I clicked on products tab to open that: http://store.secondskinaudio.com/brands/second-skin-audio and i clicked low to high. Couldnt find this. I had to come here to find the link because i can't find it on your website. :/ Quote HU: Pioneer DMH-Z5350BT Mids & Highs: ML280.3, ML700.3, ML1800.3 Mille Legend Series 3 way Lows: x3 JL Audio 12TW3 powered by JL Audio RD1500/1 Cable: x2 Skyhigh 0 Gage OFC kits.

I had to come here to find the link because i can't find it on your website. :/ That is odd, I typed in our website, clicked on accessories and it is the very first thing listed. Also supposed to be on featured page, new product page and appears under search if you type the word ROPE. We are curently working on adding a new section just for this one product, but if you try you can find it pretty easy (at least the 43 customers who have bought them in the past few weeks have found them pretty easy) Thanks for the feedback, Good Luck and have a Great Day!!!
