GRIPS?

I wanted to pass on a little restoration tip I think (?) I came up with that I haven’t seen before.
For Hoover handle grips made of rubber that are mostly in tact, you can use some 3:1 boating/RV clear shrink tube. It came out really nicely to preserve the rubber in place, and I don’t have to crack off the grip or try to find a color that isn’t heinous!

You use a heat gun or blow dryer like electrical heat shrink?
