Plasti-Dip uses

I was in Piute's Playland(Lowe's) and picked up some Plasti-Dip.It was $6 and some change.Handy stuff.Just got my frame powdercoated and am trying to be extra careful about scratches.I used it for a few different things:
Here's what it is,i'm sure you're familiar with it

Used it to replace the ends on the levers.Mine were all cracked.And the clamp that supports the rear of the coils,I didn't want it digging into my freshly coated frame

My electrical panel was severely corroded form contact with the battery acid.Epoxy powdercoat will cure that in the future!But i wanted to reproduce the rubber areas that the factory molds on there.Kinda hard to see in the pic,but they turned out nicely.Just dip them in and pull it out slowly and you will have no drips(unlike my lever tips).Just thought i would share this.Let me know of any other ideas i haven't thought of!

I was going to pick some of this stuff up for another project.
After viewing this, I think I might try it on my shift lever (the rubber has come off at some point).

Will keep you posted...
