not in this case it wasn't. But I abandoned that and am just putting in a new box, it isn't worth the hassle and possible future leaks.

I was recently out and came across a site that was painted. The painters painted everything, including the cable, tape, etc.
They did that because they were painters and not RF gurus. Most of the painters in my area are great guys, but they are all stoners. They think a great day at work is to burn a few and then paint all day. I was told "It helps to pass the time and makes a boring day fun".
This is true. I met some painters once, they were touching up a hot am tower (powered off of course). They are insane.

There is some sort of colored electrical tape that is UV resistant. I have seen it used at many cell cites to color code coax. I don't know who made it or where to get it.
3M makes colored tape. It is used for marking purposes only. It is like 1/2 inch wide. I use it all the time. :)

Again, I can you tell from experience the vapor sealant will start to weather after a few years. I've seen some stuff that was around maybe 15 years old and it was bad. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Paint-Mastic-Tape-22649513 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 12:12:56 EDT Re: Paint Mastic Tape http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Paint-Mastic-Tape-22649312 said by VariableARK:

I know it isn't standard, but I was wondering if mastic is paintable? (this is the hand moldable stuff).
what about using a colored electrical tape?

Is mastic naturally UV resistant or does it need the electrical tape over it to make it so.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Paint-Mastic-Tape-22644482 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 11:18:44 EDT
