STAR BRITE Liquid Electrical Tape - Superior Adhesion and Flexible Protection for Frayed Cables, Terminals, and Electric Splices

On one occasion my dog was injured, and in the rush to break camp forgot to unplug the electrical cord from the box at the campground. It pulled the outter rubber covering away from the plug by about a half inch. I bought this to try to bridge the gap to the plug. This stuff is amazing. It is truely liquid electrical tape! You apply it with small brush and it sets up quickly allowing you to apply another coat. It sets up hard like electrical tape with great adherence. I love this stuff!

I bought this because I had several cords, ranging from ipad charging cables to the cord for my electric razor to the cord on the vacuum cleaner, whose insulation had become brittle and was cracked and/or missing. While not visually restoring the insulation to a “like new” condition, it does do a great job repairing the insulation and, in my opinion, looks and works better than electrical tape, especially if additional build up would interfere with using something like a cord clip/hook on an appliance. While it dries or sets fairly quickly (you can safely apply additional coats, if needed, after ~5-10 minutes, the product is somewhat “gloppy” and it will run or drip before it dries sufficiently that it won’t. When completely dry, it does seem to be fairly flexible. Based on my experience, I would suggest the following: - Suspend the cord/cable horizontally and then watch for and remove any drips until it sets. If the repair is being made near the plug/connector, hanging the cord vertically could cause the product to pool excessively at the plug. - Put plastic or paper below the cord to protect the floor or work surface from any drips from the brush or the cord. - If using the brush attached to the lid, clean the product off the stem first so that you don’t have more product than you want running down the stem and onto the brush. - Be sure to clean any material off the threads of the can and the can lid before closing the can. - Instead of using the brush attached to the lid, consider using a separate brush, like a small acid brush, and wiping any excess on that brush off on an old soup can instead of the threaded edge of the product’s can. Overall, this product worked great for my applications and exceeded my expectations.

This is a great product, (mostly). It's easy to apply, (though a bit thin and drippy), it sets and dries quickly and it creates a durable seal. My only gripe is that, after several months, the material dries out and becomes useless. Frequently, I have more than 60% left over when it is no longer viable. Then, I have to purchase another can. Good thing it's not too expensive. This last purchase, I'm attempting to add a self-made rubber gasket under the lid to see if that provides a better air-tight seal. Hopefully, it makes a difference. I'll follow up with results...

It's good stuff. I ordered "COLOR: Clear", the photo showed RED, and I got black. I wish I needed black, because- like I said- it's good stuff. They need to fix the product page. And now having used it (and smelled it) for a couple of days, it seems for all the world exactly like rubber cement. So, I got some rubber cement and tried it in the same manner. Rubber cement remains tacky and this product doesn't.

Finally, something that actually works as designated. I used it on several projects and found it to be acceptable on all a little messy if you’re not careful but other than that, it works wonderful.

We have a Miele vacuum cord that is damaged in several spots (electrical tape did not work to repair) and the cord on our Nespresso machine got melted through to the wires (no damage to the wires) this product repaired both cords to safe protection and function. Several thin coats are needed but well worth the purchase.

I had never needed to use liquid electrical tape before, but Star Brite Liquid Electrical Tape has been a game-changer! I used it on the brake lights of my boat trailer, and it worked perfectly. Now, I can comfortably dip the back of my trailer into the boat launch without worrying about shorting out the electrical system. The application was super easy – just brush it on, and it dries quickly, forming a solid, waterproof seal that protects against moisture, saltwater, and corrosion. It's been great for peace of mind, knowing that my connections are secure and well-protected. If you need to protect any electrical connections from the elements, especially around water, this product is fantastic. Star Brite Liquid Electrical Tape is an excellent investment for anyone looking to safeguard their equipment from the harshest conditions!

For what I use this for it's a 4 to 5 star product. The only similar product I've found is rated for a lower maximum temperature. That said I'm never able to use a little more than half of it before it dries enough in the bottle to become unusable. The cap simply does not seal well enough and it's very apparent by the strong odor. I've purchased this 4 times. The first bottle I didn't do anything extraordinary to seal it other than making certain the cap was secured after each use. I suspect I used 25% of the bottle. After that I saved the packing and, after each use, I used heavy duty clear plastic tape to seal it, completely around the perimeter, in the original package. That extended the usable life of the product but I still couldn't use 50% of the product before it became too viscous to apply. I finally found plastic pickle relish jar with a rubber seal. The package fits inside the plastic jar but with of course some air around it. That has allowed me to use about 50 to 60% of it and the additional plastic bottle perfectly seals the smell. I'm now looking for an inexpensive, air tight container, opaque (in case UV may impact life) to transfer the contents into. It is relatively thin but I normally use it under heat shrink without adhesive on the shrink wrap itself (adhesive lined shrink wrap is often low temperature and difficult to find in a long roll and I use a lot of heat shrink). It's extremely frustrating because I love the product but I hate paying for 2 to 4 times what I can use and I hate filling a landfill with the product I'm unable to use.

Got what I ordered and it works great. Used it on a Quadcopter I built and works well.

This is ideal for waterproofing electrical connections on boats and elsewhere, its very important to read the user instructions on this product before use. Brilliant and ideal for the purpose for which it was designed. I recommend this product.

This suff is brilliant for waterproofing electrical cable connections. It has a brush built into the lid, which makes it easy to spread on.

This is a very quick and clean alternative to the traditional option of grease tape. Excellent for consumer grade tasks such as sealing plus and connections on antenna and LNBs.
