Hi all,
Big fan of all of your work, but I've rarely written in.
Recently inherited 2 old Lee Colortran Elipsoidals, the kind where you can move the lenses and field stops around to change the beam size. They came with a box of lenses and little rubbery (silicone?) grippy things to keep the lenses protected from the metal lens tube shells, but it seems like a few have been lost over time, there aren't enough to change both of my new fixtures over to 40s the way I intend.
Can anyone recommend a safe, rubbery material that one could put into a 1kw leko's lens tube that won't catch fire, get melty, ruin lenses, etc. ?
Cheers,
-Garrett G. Barker
