    I have sleeves the my PSU cables, but instead of using the standard stuff, I found some braided tubing used for shielding. It goes quite well with my chrome PSU, but I need to coat it with somthing that will prevent anything from being shorted by the cables. I tried an experiment with some Krylon clearcoad, but it was a failure. Any other ideas?

    Yeha i'ev used the rapid stuff before, it is slightly smoked especially after heat shrinking, you would still be able to see the wires throught it though i think.
