Would this work on extension cords? They're more rubber than plastic, does it matter?

The manufacturer says Krylon Fusion will bond to rubber. That said, I'd advise you to spray multiple light coats, plenty of drying time between and curing up to 7 days before using the cords. Without this extra care, I'd be concerned about surface cracks when you move them.

I can't answer that... I haven't tried it on anything as flexible as extension cords (on purpose)? From what I have seen, after spray painting my lamp, I got some on the extension cord, and it sticks rather well. I will most likely paint the rest and see what happens.

Look, it will work with power strips and extension cords. But if you can, avoid them as that is what the manufacturer recommends. Use them at you own risk. You will get better performance if you avoid power strip. Personally, I use both and have not had any issues.

I believe it would cover most surge protector cords. I have a treadmill hooked up thru this and it is a very heavy duty cord.

Wire gauge is different along with the connections on the end. A lot of extension cords are 18 or 16 gauge. But if you use 14 gauge wire with the proper connections you should be fine. Remember the exposed terminal is the ground side.

I might be wrong but I don't think it would directly, but I think it would if you use a two and a half inch rubber connector.

We still have ours on a heavy duty 3 prong extension cord and it works just fine. VERY easy to install.

They recommend you minimize the length when using extension cords. I was using a 12 awg extension but it is no longer than 15 ft. With no problems. 12awg can pull 20 amps through it but I think they want to minimize the resistance which will maximize the current going to the tool. It will work but you may run I to a penetration Issue with the studs which may pop off after a few pulls.

This Outlet Cover normally will accommodate 4 foot of cord. I tried this with my computer cord. With a thicker cord it will not hold 4 foot of cord. It will work as far as protecting the plug, you will not be able to wrap all the cord in the shortener.

It will work fine as long as your not gonna use more than 50-75 feet of extension cord. Any longer and Id go with a 12 gauge cord

i don't know...but we use it to roll-up a 100 ft. heavy duty (orange) extension cord...with ease. We love it...we have two.

I would say no but only because most extension cords are usually too thick. If it's an extension cord that's old and only has two wires you could possibly get away with it

I don't know about this unit but they make cord reels specifically made for extension cords that are cheaper and would probably work better. Amazon has plenty of those.

As indicated by others it, of course, depends on the plug. If looks don't matter to you I have noted that there is no discernable performance drop if one uses a one-foot extension cord as one can buy here on Amazon. Do a search for "short extension cord". The Generic units are inexpensive (5 for less than $9) and work well.

I have found that it depends. I have successfully used mine with some power strips, but not others, likely due to the differences in how the surge protection, if any, on the strip is accomplished electrically. I have also had success with extension cords and output expanders.

I believe this would, but a lot depends on the quality of the connectors you use. This crimpers, like others, depends on user skill level (stripping the correct amount of insulation etc.) and the quality of the connectors used (in my humble opinion). This crimper works great and the jaws have adjustment screws. On smaller gauge wire it is trickier, but again, it's all in the skill of the operator I think. I also find tinning the wire seems to help on smaller gauge wire too.

sorry but I don't know the answer to that question.I myself do not use it on plastic or rubber.

Carol, Generally, I would think so. A rule of thumb is not to use an extension cord with a thinner cable than the cable of the unit you're extending. Small frigs don't use much current so I think that this extension cable would work.
