Hose Techniques

Any place that sells powder coating supplies will sell silicone vacuum caps as well.

Heres some vinyl caps
silicone caps

Their used for masking off parts for media blasting and powdercoating. The vinyl caps can take up to 400*F, and the silicone can take 600*F. Stockcap.com lists their silicone caps for automotive use; their minimum quantity is 10 or 25 per bag.
