Hi. I'm looking for some advice/recommendation for a proper adhesive for some rear mount tweeters in home SLA cabinets.
Permanent, but with the ability to remove if needed for driver replacement.
Thanks,
Dale Hammer

Re: SLA tweeter adhesive
Hi Dale. Amazing looking work you've done there. 
The only solution that comes to mind at the moment is a tiny bead of black silicone. Or, possibly even put the driver in place and apply a thick bead around the parimeter of the backside of the flange so you don't have to worry about cleaning any of it off your beautiful finish and/or face of the element. I'll be curious to hear what some of the other guys thoughts are too.

Re: SLA tweeter adhesive
Thanks for the input. After doing some tests, I decided on some non-reactive RTV (Permatex 80050 Clear RTV Silicone Adhesive Sealant). Held and sealed really well, but with a little work, I could remove the tweeter if need be.
