Default Old Fashion Blade Heat Shrink

Hi Folks, In the old days I was able to by long lengths of white heat shrink to cover my blades with
before the carbon fiber blades came out. I am working on a project (none blade related) and I need some old
fashion blade covering. but I am having the hardest time finding it. I don't even see it at
the tower site, can anybody lead me in the right direction?
Thanks Much!
Jeff

Battery places have it for making packs, usually in clear and white of differing widths and thicknesses.

Never thought of that. I wonder if they have it in 16 inch lengths? about 2 inches wide

I found this really easy... there are a lot of places to get it.

I get it from Batteries Plus, they sell it in whatever length you want from a couple inches to by the foot. Not sure if you have them there but if not you can get it over the web.
