Heatshrink not working :|

[jmew0ng]

So I always thought if you get the heatshrink hot enough it'll shrink down a bit... or am I doing something wrong to activate it?

I'm just using a typical lighter..

[Katana]

Do u need it for the Grounding kit?

[jmew0ng]

haha yeah

[Katana]

I cannot even find here the stuff needed!

Dammit, this is what annoys most in mya country!

A lighter should work just fine, but I use a heat gun whenever im shrink wrapping.

What brand do you get? Some cheaper brands, if too large, compared to your wires, will only "shrink" so much. I use the kind we have at work, and its awesome!

Let me see what I can do... If you want, I could put together a little package for you, and ship it off.

Nice idea.Will I pay through greek mail service?

The problem is that I don't have a credit card, but if I pay through mail service, it'll be fine.

I appreciate your good will Chris!

haha lemme know if you're going to be mass producing... i bought that rockford fosgate crimp rings which came with heatshrinks.. but the weird thing is only 2 of them were significantly larger :| and I caught one of the heatshrinks on fire somehow haha

Dont get the flame too close. Heatshrink will burn.

[jmew0ng]

Now ya know and knowing is half the battle..... thats for all the G.I. Joe fans:thumbup:

Use a heat gun! Much more control, over having to spin a lighter around the shrink wrapping...
