My Blue Bird battery tools
bonneyman:
It's definitely worth a shot. It's cheap, got good grip, comes in all sorts of sizes and colors, and easy to slice off and redo if you don't like how it looks.

I had fairly good luck with the old plasti-dip. Came in different colors, but did have to let them hang to dry for awhile.
Did you fold in the ends of the heat shrink before melting? No matter, they look great!

No, I leave a little amount hanging off the end and then heat it until it melts and starts to burn. Then rub it against a cold metal surface while it's semi-liquid and it usually seals the end up nice.
