No matter where I looked, I could never find Thickwall tubing that were colored and my Audi couldn't get them so I decided to sharpie them!

What do you think?!

Good idea, it will also cover up the disgusting yellow funk that is always getting trapped in there.
 
I got the idea from a mum who has done the same thing as her daughter needs Thickwall tubing. Hers have lasted a month without any problems at all :)
 
I've painted my tubes black with nail polish - so-so idea.
The polish never really dries out on plastic (or latex, whatever it is),
so if you rub the tube too hard it sticks to your fingers and comes off the tube - messy.
but it does cover well otherwise. it won't peel at least, and no it won't color your skin.

btw I have no idea what kind of the tubing I have, but my guess is the cheap ones..

Fuzzy
 
I also have the thicker tubing my audi says this is better for severe/profound losses..I just go along with it lol cuz I don't really notice a difference lol
 
Isn't the Emtech colored tubing thick wall? I have used it before with no problem. Although I did get bored with it after a while..

Not from what I have read, Emtech is standard thickness tubing. I'm happy with sharpie'd my tubing as I can do 2 at a time and have a different colour Everytime I change my tubing.

The purple is lasting well :)
