Clear Heat Shrink

I liked what I did to the Pentel Graphlet PG503 so well that I have now put it on my Koh-I-Noor 5633, my Mitsubishi uni0.3 M3-522 and my Pentel GraphGear 500 PG523, all which had metal grips. This not only protects them but gives me a non-slip plastic grip that I like. Instructions on just how to apply the heat shrink, as well as where to find it, see the heading "Pentel Graphlet 500 Grip Fix". Just be sure that you have a very sharp hobby knife blade when you do it. That's very important as is waiting for the heat shrink to cool down completely before starting the trimming. Happy pencil moding.

btw DO NOT try this on a plastic grip area as the heat will soften the plastic and cause the grip/pencil to wrap and or bend out of shape.

Update. 10/15/2008. I have now also applied clear heat shrink to my new Alvin Draft/Matic DM03 and my Ohto Promecha SP-503M, both of which have metal grips. By using items of equal diameter I have also been able to apply the heat shrink grip to my Pentel Graph PG303 and Zebra Drafix DM3-300. Great stuff, clear heat shrink!
