    Advice on painting speakerbox

    The 'wetbox' seems to be made of hdpe. Any tips on changing the color from yellow to grey? Sand it, prime it, paint it, clear it? What grit paper and what cheap paint will work best? Thanks alot

    None! Lol. Go to sherwin williams, take a sample of the box and they will get you squared away. Good paint isnt much more than the crap from lowes or home depot.

      Most plastics you can paint. But polyethylene is one plastic known for not sticking anything. I use polyethylene when I do not want fiberglass resin, or epoxy, or ant thing else to stick to it. Most paints you could apply to polyethylene, and after the paint is dry, you could just peel the paint off in one big sheet.

        What about rhino liner in a can stuff? The shape makes doing vinyl slightly a pain. We want it blue, black, or grey in a perfect world. The yellow clashes so badly.

          I had my local Line-X place spray my sub box. It turned out really good, and I'd highly reccomend that. It was just a little over $100...
