[sdiy] Speaker repairs??

[Bob Weigel]

I haven't done it on rubber that I can recall but goop automotive will 
generally dry into a rubber bandsy kind of way and it tends to get into 
materials enough to stick really good.  Especially in a situation like 
that where you can put it on the front and back and let it bleed 
throught he crack so that both surfaces are connected by what winds up 
being the direct bond at the tear interface.  I've fixed many speaker 
tears with it and no complaints so far.  As it ages outdoors I'm seeing 
it gets harder in particular.  Sunlight etc. probably changes it. -Bob
