I use the sealing shrink tube and the removal process involves a good set of
cable cutters. I whack it off at the shrink tube ends and install new
connectors. The time involved to remove all the sealing goo would be far in
excess of what it takes to put on two new connectors.

Subject: [TowerTalk] FLooded shrink tubing?? Can you remove it??
I saw that Roger, K8RI, used heat shrink tubing with "sticky goo" inside
for his coax connections. I've got a supply of that from my days at the
local utility. We used it for PERMANENT underground splices.
Has anyone (Roger??) had experience removing that heat shrink from a
connection? I'm about to put up a tower with three antennas on it and
was planning on using "coax-seal" but that heat shrink would be better
but I've never had to remove it before.
