bklein Posted October 25, 2023 Author Share Posted October 25, 2023 Plastic-dip actually accentuates the cracks in the grey plastic insulation. Gave up on that and bought the 3x or 4x heatshrink. This works but is too thick to reuse the coil relief at the coil side. Might be a problem due to stiffness but otherwise works. Used the 3/16 on each litz and the 3/8” over both. Quality of the product is not consistent as far as shrinking and glue goes. Used the Wirefy brand, 50 feet spools. 50$ into it for hopefully 3+ coils.

dig4gold Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I would get a new coil if it were me. I don't see the point of spending the time & effort of doing the repair work on an old coil cable when the coil is most likely not performing at its best anyway. These days you need every advantage possible to get some gold in your poke & a new, later release coil is a good start. D4G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSC Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 I have used " liquid tape" for some applications, very flexible and holds up well, perhaps worth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
