I see a lot of people recommending this product to help seal up the cabinets. I just finished installing hurricane nuts while I wait for my crossovers. Can someone provide a link to the correct type and thickness if it’s still available? Thanks.

    Home depot has it. Yes it is available. It's a plumbing pipe wrap.

    Adhesive side to the driver NOT the cabinet. Overlap a bit and cut on the diagonal to avoid air leaks.
    I use an old soldering iron to burn screw/bolt hole to avoid it twisting under the flange.

    Is this still worth the effort if all my original gaskets are good?
