Re: Best "dip" product?
Are you going to use this type product with electrical hand tools do not know what kind of electrical installation quality this product has but I have thought of this before using this product for this purpose myself
But the question I have posed is the reason I have not used it for that purpose

[Though I have many licensed electrician colleagues who are comfortable with Plasti-dip. <shudder> I'd be forever worrying about a crack developing in the coating and flesh pressing through it to contact the underlying metal tool]
"Dip" is used simply to provide a more friendly grip on the tool (most machined/cast metal tools have very crude handles -- peel off the coatings on yours to see just how crude/uncomfortable). Trying to find replacement handles is a fools errand... (you can try slipping rubber hose of an appropriate I.D. over the handles but this gets really clumsy looking/feeling).
You can buy rubberized coatings that are designed for their electrical insulation properties (e.g., "Liquid Tape" is good for 1400V/mil). But, they aren't intended in applications that will see "mechanical abuse" (like the handles of a tool!)Last edited by Curious.George; 01-01-2020, 10:23 AM.
