Waaaaay back when I was a kid and my buds and I were building our first hot rods I started spray
painting my tools -- so I could spot them a mile away -- in their tool boxes. Worked really
well. Funny thing is, seems like every time I go home to Michigan I find another of my
green-painted tools -- in my Dad's tool boxes. (Now I'm happy to have him using my stuff --
keeps us close when I live so far away.)

Besides, 99.9% of the time I don't loan or share my tools, or don't have them in an environment
where they could get mixed up... I have been thinking about experementing with dichem, though,
although just to highlight the sixe markings.
