Default I think I found a way to prevent Shure cable cracking!

For a while, I'd been looking for either a paint-on or spray-on rubber-like material to coat the wires and prevent the cables from cracking.

I had been thinking about this for some time and asking as many people as I could if such a thing existed -- everyone told me no.

Well, I found something I am pretty sure (time will tell) will totally eliminate the cable cracking problem. It's something called "Liquid Tape", and it's exactly as its name sounds. It's liquid electrical tape.

I can't tell you all how happy I am to have finally found exactly what I was looking for!

I masked off the buds and the connecter with some tape and sprayed on the rubbery stuff on the wires...it dries in about 20 mins. The cables totally retain their flexibility, and you can peel it off (it takes a bit of work) if you don't want it there anymore.

Just wanted to share a little find with my friends here!
