Subwoofer Glueing

[AlwaysBubblin]

Almighty, so I have a minor dilemma facing me.

I recently acquired two 12" Type R's for a good deal.

One problem. One of the subs, the cone and surround came unglued from the basket of the sub.

I was wondering if there was a budget glue I could use to re-glue it... Also I was wondering what would be the best plan to re-glue it, glue it all at one time and manufacture something that would apply pressure to the entire area, or should I do it a small area at a time, so I can make sure there is enough pressure.







Also, I was wondering if I could possibly get two birds stoned at one and use the same glue to glue on a dust cap to a Cerwin Vega I bought broken.. And the cone is made out of Polypropylene, and I read that most glues do not adhere to it very well. Also I kinda don't want to spend more than $20 for the glue in total.. If I have too I will but I'd prefer not too.

Use amazing goop houngan get it at wallmart and most hadwares

Stores. Apply and then ist some cloths pins to hd it down or spring clamps. And you can use the same stuff on the dust cap. Get the all purpose one if they have it if not any version will work just fine it's what I use when building custom subs it works great just apply it kinda thick and speed it with something to make it somewhat even and clamp her down

Amazing goop works pretty well. The issue with gluing on the surround is to make sure that you do not get it off center in the slightest. For pressure buy a pack of clothes pins

Ca glue and activator. Any hobby shop has it. Around $15 for both. This is what's used

look for this and the activator. Rubberized CA Glue. Most hobby stores sell it.
