    I LOVE HEAT SHRINK!

    You know when you lose the aglet of your lace and it frays, then you can't put your shoes on properly, then fall on your face because your laces are all over the place. I don't! I've never had that happen because the very first time I saw heat shrink I went and bought metres long lengths of it. Then went home and fixed the end of all my shoelaces!

    Over the years the only development to this process is now before I carefully shrink the heat shrink I squirt in a few drops of Gorilla brand super glue. This process will even double the lifespan of long boot laces that have frayed from rubbing against metal eyes. Just slide the HS down to cover the fray, and then some, squirt in the glue at either end, do not burn the lace in two... voila! Just make sure the lace is not copmpletely severed though, this process will not 'repair' a lace.
