Waterproofing LED lighting electrical connections


Mad Dog

Recommended Posts

Goooooooooooood morning,

 

I'm putting som LED accent lighting in, around and under my 06 RSV. There are a few plugs that snap the LED strands together that should probably be waterproofed since they actually sent shrink tubing to do this. Problem is that the shrink tubing doesn't quite fit. Just a bit too small.

 

Anyway I'm looking for opinions and suggestions...

I was wondering if just a coating of silicone? or that F4 Tape? Both?

Find the right shrink tubing???

 

TIA

Mike

Depending on how much to small the heat shrink is, you may be able to stretch it enough to fit then shrink it back in place. Sometimes heatshrink start to recove it’s size (shrink) on its own due to age . If you do decide to get new heat shrink in a more appropriate size, get the adhesive lined type, it is much better at water proofing.
