OMG! I didn't know this stuff existed. 

I've ordered a tin of primer and a couple of tins of the Plasti Dip so I can get my clamps recoated. I've got 5 pairs, each for a different task, and the coating on all the handles is pretty much chewed through so this is just what I need. Might get the jaws coated also give the parts some protection.

Thank you for posting the info 

I'm quite interested in this too, could you tell me if that stuff is any good once you tried it?

I have used the stuff before. The stuff in the tins seems to be the best, you can also heat the tool up in an oven after dipping it to accelerate the cure, and you can dip it multiple times to build up a real thick layer.  This stuff is used with a special coin purse shaped metal plug to make those soft rubber oval coin holders. Almost everyone in middle school had to make one back in the ‘70’s here in the US.
