I like jaybong's idea and would go with it .

The PROs use car Wax. McGuiar's #5 or whatever wax you use.

(1) RF Punch 250A2 - running the components.

(1) Hifonics 6.5" Atlas Components (18db crossovers).

Do a search on the mold release, I asked about it a couple months back. the cheapest way I remember was the WD-40. Good luck bro!
