I'd put strips of Scotch 33 across til they're covered, then a wrap of tape around 
the boom, over the cross-strips ends.

Both the new antenna and the replacements came with red Caplugs instead of the normal black UV resistant type for the 2" boom covers. Does anyone have any experience with the longevity of these out in the sun? I've used these in the past and get about a year from them before they bleach out to white, split and fall off. Given these keep critters and other undesireables out of the boom, I'm a bit concerned with the amount of work involved in putting these up. The elements have blue ones which I have no experience with, any help????
