Repairing pressboard?
« on: September 28, 2008, 10:33:52 pm »
Does anyone know or have any experience in repairing a cab made of pressboard?  It seems the Omega Race cabinet is made of some strange kind of pressboard in places...and I'm not totally sure how to repair it.

Right now I'm thinking sand down or cut away, then seal with...something..., then add bondo/filler.  It's small areas to patch, so it shouldn't be a big deal.  Biggest problem i have is I think there's some kind of sticker instead of paint on the cab which is blowing my mind how to touch up.  That or it's really latexy paint.
