being that the finish is on the outside, I dont see how this is a concern. I have heard concerns about not letting the caulk completly cure before bolting in the subs. A chemical that is released in the curing process was thought to attack the foam surrounds when trapped inside sealed enclosures.

i think its better safe than sorry---fresh bed liner has a really strong smell for a really long time, much more than chaulking, and although it nots trapped inside, i think itd still be of concern

i've seen it done quite a few times. i even did mine, but i had to. cut through. you can even get the gun and shoot it on. the gun only cost me $50, and i can shoot sound deadener with it too. look in my gallery for a couple pics. i think the spray look will be much better that a roll on look.

My son and I will be building a sub box for his Jimmy and I am thinking about having both the inside and outside sprayed with some type of Rhino-liner type of product; both to finish the outside and to help seal the inside. Other than allowing adequate drying/ventilation time, does this seem like a good approach? Sorry for re-directing the thread a bit.

Some friends of mine used the roll-on stuff to cover some boxes that I made for their boat. I didn't like the way the roll-on stuff looked after it dried. It looked clumpy. I'm considering getting my box professionally sprayed w/ Line-X, and I've been quoted $50-100.

So the others would know whether it was roll-on or spray-on.

id be weary of spraying on the inside
i would just stick to good ol' chaukling...easier, less time, just as good, cheaper, and might save the subs

I did my box inside and out with rattle cans of rubberized spray undercoating. It wont win any best of show's or anything, but it looks decent and sounds good.

i painted the outside of my old box before with that roll ON liner and yes it was very chunky!
with the insides of the box i just use liquid nail or silicone. ya only gotta do the corners!
but one bad thing about the roll on liner is DONT put it on the botom if the box will be on any fabric.LOL it realy grabs and very hard to scoot around!!!!!!!LOL
