will this silicone work for repairing foam surround?

[212s 10+ year member]

ripped a small hole in the foam surround on my DD 1510. maybe half a inch long max.

i have 3 different types of silicone

the 1st one is NAPA 765-1237

its red in color

says on bottle "high-temp RTV silicone gaskey maker"

the next is permatex ultra grey rigid high torque rtv silicone gasket maker

thye next is seamermate gutter seal

if none of these will work what exact silicone should i get?

how long do i need to wait for it to dry completely and be able to play the sub?

yes silicone works wonders. apply to the inner and outer sides of the surround. and let some connect. this way is creates a good seal on the ripped surround

Wait until it has fully cured.

Read the directions on the stuff you buy.

Most say 24 hours.

Not to bring up an old thread but would Shop GE 2.8 oz Silicone II Premium Waterproof Kitchen & Bath WHITE Caulk at Lowes.com work in this case? Same crap happened to me today.
