    Can I silicon over my bluewater navigation lights?

    Instead of just putting silicon over the ends can I put silicon over the entire led strip to protect them a little more from contact and uv rays to keep from yellowing? I thought I read that on here but just want to clarify.

    Most silicones dry with a cloudy tint even if it says dries clear. It will affect the light out put I would think??? You might could try a small section on each end and see how it dries.

    We only recommend putting silicone where the wire enters the boat.
