At worst it might slightly change the turning, but even that is minor if you use a non-conductive paint.

an antenna like fire stick is already shrink wrapped.. so you can probably shrink wrap with no issues.. other than finding shrink wrap the same size as your antenna...

paint will probably not work well at all since most antenna are flexible...

as mentioned it may only slightly change the tuning..

got with one that has adjustable tune abilities.. aka fire stick..

if you find shrink wrap in the size of an antenna post up where you find it at please

and firestick does make several colors

You can find heat shrink tubing in a variety of diameters and lengths at All Electronics.

Might be easier to buy a new black firestik from Rick at Quadratec.

Avoid metallic paint, or better yet just avoid paint entirely. The paint will crack and flake off when the antenna flexes on the freeway.

Shrink wrap is good to go.

Firestiks are cheap, like $25. Id just get a new one like @ktwillys said. BY the time you get the shrink wrap or paint, you are out that much in your time alone.

Use black flex seal. It will bend with the antenna.

Use black flex seal. It will bend with the antenna.

not a bad ideal.. is it only in black though???

Depends on the velocity factor of the shrink wrap.

Throw a piece in the micrwave and nuke the hell out of it. If it gets hot, you will have issues.

If you are going to use that flex seal stuff, just use plasti dip. comes in many colors. Very flexible.
