The rubber covering on both swim ladder clips have discolored and are starting to dry out. Does anyone know where replacement clips or covers can be found?
I was thinking of removing the old cover and "dipping" the clips in the rubbery stuff you use for tool handles, (pliers, etc.).
Any thoughts would be more than welcome. Thanks.

I think he means the clips that hold the ladder up JK.

You could try the factory also, at the price I'd try dipping them myself, they'll clean up some with Tilex.

if you don't know about sugru you should!

A while back I asked this forum for some ideas on a repair and was given a great tip!! Go to this site http://sugru.com and see if this might do the trick for you. Its great stuff, and can be used in so many applications. When it dries/cures, it is amazing stuff. It comes in black, white and colors.. I bought a pack of black and white and they come individual portions. There is an expiration date on each package but I have found that as long as I don't open the individual package they stay fresh. Very cool stuff!
