Spectre711 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 What are you guys using for ignition wires on your builds? I'm frustrated with trying to use painted copper wire. I haven't used the stuff available from Detail Master yet and was wonder how that was. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
viper730 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) That is just rubber coated soft wire. easy enough to use.... What is the issue painting it? To me that is a breeze.... Edited January 28, 2016 by viper730 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre711 Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 I was trying to use striped phone wire but it is actually a bit stiff a I'm finding it a little difficult to keep fixed while bending into place. I was wondering if the Detail Master stuff was worth the cost. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre711 Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 So are the aftermarket ignition wire marked out there very pliable? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cag_200 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I love to use wire-wrap It comes in black, red, yellow, green, etc Very easy to bend, comes in handy for detailing gear etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre711 Posted March 1, 2016 Author Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) Where do you get this "wire-wrap" and what is it used for? Edited March 2, 2016 by Spectre711 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cag_200 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 (edited) Wire wrap is used in the hi-fi world. You have a small instrument (cable wire-wrap tool driver) which wraps the wire on a voltage-pin. It seemed a better grip than solder. You can find it the USA for sure! Wire wrap rolls Edited March 4, 2016 by cag_200 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
silva963 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Lead wire from sporting good store that sells fly tying supplies. Available in different sized, easy to bend and look great, often available for under $5.00 for a single spool! Just Another option! http://www.cabelas.com/product/Lead-Wire-Assortment/744541.uts?productVariantId=1598815&WT.tsrc=PPC&WT.mc_id=GoogleProductAds&WT.z_mc_id1=30033446&rid=20&gclid=CKinzvCavMwCFYM2aQodck8NRA&gclsrc=aw.ds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
