How can I insulate bare wire.

Hi. Sorry for my bad English because I'm not American.

Here are some of my questions.

I bought 20m of 28 awg silver bare wire for my IEM recabling.

But I don't know how to insulate the wire and material for insulation.

So please let me know if you know how to insulate wire and flexible material which is appropriate for tubing and shop which sell the product.

Thank you.

Heatshrink, I guess. I just wouldn't normally go to the trouble of messing with bare wire. Loads of trouble at higher cost without benefit. Clear might be fun as long as you're messing with exotic materials anyway.

 

If you're not American, you might want to specify your geography since it affects which sources you can buy from.

You can buy teflon tubing for relatively cheap prices.  That being said, threading meters of tiny wire through an equally tiny tube is a pain in the ass, most people prefer just to buy pre-served wire for that reason.

would be cool to see a chem film wire deal with clear sleeving (so that the wire looks kinda rainbowy =])
