OUCH!!!

I have been watching this thread with interest.  I have a wonderful
35 ft fiberglass vertical at home.  It needs some sort of coating, the
fiberglass is starting to show through.  I was also hoping to camo it, 
OD-green, sky-blue-gray...  something.

So... this is not good news.  Hmmmmm....

I wonder if they make heat-shrink tubing in OD-green, Sky Blue, or
gray???  Does heat shrink have any metal in it?

IDEAS - ANYONE ?????
