Dr_Crash Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 ... and I didn't want to hijack the rope marking thread, here's another question. I got some Mammut Dyneema slings, and marked them on the black sleeve which is around the sewing (because of the way the slings are constructed, those don't have a flap that is independent and could be marked). I marked them using fingernail polish, and it took a few applications since the sleeve was soaking up the polish. I wonder if the polish (or the solvent in it) may be bad for the sling, which I can't look at since it's hidden below the black sleeve. I'd rather waste some $$$ and throw the marked slings (or keep them around for some non-climbing use) than risk a sudden break. And yes, I could have thought about that first but it was in my first newbie days... drC Quote
