headphone cable repair

I have an earphone that I often use while working. The single driver allows me to listen to music yet still hear and converse with coworkers and customers. Somehow the outer jacket of the cable got abraded, exposing the inner wires and the ground shield.
I lucked out and found that dipping the worn section into a can of "As Seen on TV" Flex Seal and hanging it to dry is the most perfect repair that a person could hope for.
