The rubber that this cord is made of is a bit tough to paint. The paint takes an extremely long time to dry, if ever. So, I decided to try painting it with a black paint meant for plastic, first. Then, I will paint it the proper gray, later. I wrapped it around a piece of PVC pipe, making sure to wrap it exactly the way it will be wrapped on the actual Detonator tube.
The cord was then painted with the black paint.
The second extension cord was then split into two separate pieces, as well. The unused side was discarded.
The second cord was wrapped on the PVC pipe, and painted black, as well. Now, these just need to dry until they’re no longer sticky…
