10.  Apply a second coat of topping compound covering 

the entire surface of the speaker and all adjoining 
surfaces.

11.  Compound buildup on the active surface of the 

speaker should not exceed 3mm (1/8”).

12.  Detail the compound to minimize tool marks.

13.  Allow each layer to fully cure. This can take 12–24 

hours.

14.  Build more coats as necessary to achieve desired 

finish. Each successive coat should be thinner than 
the last. The final coat should be a very light skim 
coat application.

FINISH THICKNESS GUIDELINES

Sound quality and installation durability will be 
adversely effected if finish materials are applied too 
thick.

TOTAL FINISH THICKNESS FOR OPTIMAL 

PERFORMANCE: 

1.0mm to 1.5mm (3/64” to 1/16”)

MAXIMUM TOTAL FINISH THICKNESS:

 3mm (1/8”)

Validate finish thickness using the Sonance DG-1 
depth gauge (SKU 93491).

Do not use hard-setting or stiff materials over the 
surface of invisible speakers, such as fast-setting 

drywall mud (“hot mud”), genuine Venetian plaster, 
stucco, metal panels, tile, etc. Use only flexible 

materials to finish invisible speakers.

When using flexible sheet materials such as 

wallpaper or veneer, ensure that the total thickness 
of any drywall compound, adhesives, and the 
finishing substrate itself does not exceed 3mm 

(1/8”). For wood veneer finishes, use only 20mil 
(0.5mm) veneer with paper backing.
