Fix dented Cones

(1/1)

gbtr6:
Hi,

New here, but am re-finishing a pair of Dahlquist DQM-9's and they have dented soft cones on the tweeters and mids. I have a product I found that works great for pulling them out. They are MicroStix, and should be available at Hobby Lobby, or online.

Sir Thrift-a-Lot:
Nice.   Thanks for the tip.   Sometimes I'll mist the paper to soften it and make it less likely to crease.   Will these still work if there is dampness?

gbtr6:
I don't think so, and on paper you don't want to weaken them with moisture. These little bugger are aggressive. I used them for a sil cone on the Magnat tweeters and mids, aluminum would be OK too.
