Tell him to buy a sleave. Buy at home depot. A black eletrical wire sleave that covers the lenth, of course it would be 'strech' material to fit over the plug covers.

i dunno, i just don't think painting electrical components sounds like a good idea to me, even if it's just the insulation. but i's say get some wire cover or maybe wrap them up in electrical tape lol.

I don't know of any paint that's going to stay on the wires.... once you bend them to a certain point they're gonna crack... i think anyways..... but there is this stuff, i'm not sure what it's called but you use it to coat your toolhandles in..... it's like liquid rubber stuff. you can probably get it at your nearest hardware store.... i don't know if you have a harbor freights where you live but that's where i saw it at before.....

maybe buy some brush-on bedliner (for trucks?) and put it on fairly light?
