Questions & Answers
exterior printing - is there printing on the exterior of the tubing? I'm trying to make a professional looking product out of it. so if there is white model numbers and information written all down the side of the tube that kind of ruins it for me.
- Thank you for your question. This particular brand of heat shrink does NOT have any printing on it.
