... A customer told me of an interesting way of "doctoring" up old cloth covered wire..He said that some time ago,an electrician was working at his home and came across the cracked,frail,frayed wires in a box,and instead of just taping them up,used an ordinary drinking straw,which he simply covered over the offending,denuded wire,and some kind of polymer that had two parts,much like epoxy does,and a syringe-like applicator with which he "injected" the polymer into the straw,waited a few minutes,removed the straw,and ...voila,..a new pliable,flexible rubber/latex insulation covering for the wire...Has ANYONE here heard of such a thing?? The guy who told me this is a Dentist,and explained the process explicitly so I believe he wasn't making it up...I just never heard of this type of agent for this type of application... Help!!
