What's the best way to cover up steel braided hose?

[MikeCouves]

I like steel braided but it easily scratches up your marker. I was thinking about using black hockey stick tape, that stuff is durable and wouldn't scratch your marker. What do you guys think?

Hose wrap stuff works good. Can get from hydraulic/auto shops if they have it.

Shrink tubing is also good to use. Any electronics store will have a variety of sizes and lengths. Get a size that just barely lets the fittings to slide through.

Sure is! I wish I had that Emag! Well I will try the cheap tape way, if that doesn't work I will try what you guys do, I like your ideas!

heat shrink tubing is way better than tape and wont leave a sticky mess on the air line if you ever take it off. its like 3 bux go buy it. and NO im not giving you the money

Does anyone have a pic of shrink tubing on a hose? I have never seen it before...

What diameter heat shrink tubing?

3/8" or 1/2"

Anyone with experience with this stuff?

[MikeCouves]

Yeah Kevmag I am thinking the same thing myself. I want to see it before I go looking for it..

[Kevmag]

Looks like 1/2&quot;

I bought 3/8" but it won't fit over the nut in the front (behind the thread). Looks like 1/2" will fit.

Gotta go back to the store.

Shrink wrap, and electric tape work.

[MikeCouves]

Yeah I have decided on heat shrink tubing. Can you get that stuff off though?

[paintbattler]

if u wanna be really cheap, u can use elctrical tape...

[MikeCouves]

Well I don't live in a box . I can find some of that shrink wrap tubing, can you get that at a local Radio Shack>>
