I'm getting about a 50% success rate re-wrapping.
1 - using a blow dryer
2 - some of the wraps came cheap from China
Is ending up with crinkles at the ends a sign of
a) an idiot that isn't heating the wrap properly
or
b) crappy wraps
or
c) some of each
I can't use 'em with the crinkles - the whole reason I'm re-wrapping is because they go in mech squonkers, some of which are a pretty tight squeeze, and that's where I get a catch and the beginning of a rip.
Are there "thicker" or just better quality wraps that shrink more perfectly?
Or does it have to do with temperature or what gets shrunk first? (I've tried a few ways, and the thing blows pretty hot).
Thanks for the help!!
Forgot to take a picture, but googled, and it's KIND OF like this...
(ignore the weirdness in the middle, and not this bad, but enough to be a problem)
