ATM Baffling (was "What's the best flat black tube paint?")

concluded the easiest way will be to locate the positions on the outside of
the tube, then use three sewing needles or finish nails through the tube.
The baffle can then be dropped into the tube to rest on the nails, and then
stapled in place from the outside. The nails can then be pulled out and
the
holes filled with plastic wood. For baffling material, I'm considering
foam
core boards available at any craft store.

Man, the things that you can learn on this list. I'd have never thought to
do that.
I'm not familiar with what foam core boards are, though. I guess it would
have to be sturdy enough to staple into. I guess the texture would allow
for painting as well...
