Title: Flex Strip weatherproofing
Post by: fbinthesouth on October 30, 2011,

How are people weather-sealing the flexible strips? What method has seemed to work the best?

If you haven't cut them then they should be sealed.  If you have cut them, I would get some clear RTV sealant and put it in the end which is open.  That appears to be how they are sealed at the factory as well.  Or you could use the plasti-dip stuff that people are using on the nodes.  It just wont be as easy to keep in the jacket that the strips come in since it has a lower viscosity.

I used clear RTV on mine.
