Toolbox: Tool Handle Coatings

Sometimes tools work well but just don't feel right in your hand. You can add a comfortable rubber grip to any tool using a multipurpose flexible coating. The coating resists cracks and abrasions and even comes in a variety of colors. One can is enough to coat an entire shop full of tools, and it's very easy to use. Slowly lower the tool handle-first into the can of coating, then bring it out and hang it up to dry. If you would like a thicker coat, just dip the tool again.
