| Tank covers by RASE. They have a rubber back for better gripping, they look good, and of course, they protect the tank from dents and scratches. |

| Product Availability | |
|
| The RASE Tank Cover is older, so while it may be available used and in a few cases new, it is not commonly available anymore. |

| Review: |
This is by far the worst tank cover I have ever seen. It is literally paper thin. I actually believe my tank would be better protected in a Ziploc sandwich bag than in this cover. I am sorry I purchased it. It would have been more useful to just light my money on fire. At least that would have provided some light, heat, and amusement. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Don't buy this, I emplore you. If you absolutely must have one, send me a self addressed stamped envelope and you can have mine.
P.S. I gave it a 1 because -47 was not an option. |

|
| Strengths: |
grippy part at the back and lots of colors |
|
| Weaknesses: |
very thin and easy to damage the tank if you hit it hard enough |
|
| Review: |
this cover was the cheapest I could get, not worth the cost but not much in pball is. its easy to clean and will prevent scratches on the tank but offers no real other protection.
Since the cover needs to be stretched the threads loosen over time limiting the covers life. It offers basic protection but if you think you need more look into a dye cover, better but much more expensive. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Good for the baller that looks after his/her gear but not the best on the market. If you play airball then this cover should offer the protection needed, for rec ball I would suggest a thicker cover. |

| Strengths: |
No zipper
well made. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
prevents only minor damage |
|
| Review: |
This cover is only thick enough to prevent minor scratching. Its rubber backing serves well to secure tank on your shoulder. Its simple but well made. a zipper would scratch a fiber tank. This one uses velcro to secure. Enough words now? MAN! Mine is green. I like green. Neoprene is good |
|
| Conclusion: |
better made than a redz cover but won't protect as well as a DYE rhino. I've used it for several years and its good as new still. |

|
| Review: |
This is a good basic tank cover. It is a bit thin though and doesn't inspire confidence in it's ability to protect the tank from any significant inpact. i'd be more comfortable with one that has thicker padding, or some sort of extra protection on the bottm or where a tank is more likely to be scraped. I'm sure it's mostly me though, and I've not had any problems with mine. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a decent choice for a plain tank cover. It's not flashy but it works. |

| Review: |
i got the 88ci version of this, and at first it was a pain to get on, then after 1 day of playing, i noticed a tear in the grip part.
a week or 2 later, i was playing again and when the guy took off the cover to check the date on the tank, he made a small rip in t when putting it back on |
|
| Conclusion: |
get a tank cover no matter what if you have a N2 system, i would splurge and get something a little nicer, like a dye or jt |

| Review: |
I think that all tank covers are about the same, I recommend this tank cover or any other on the market. They are very nice to have and they look really cool on tanks. They make the tank very comfy and it even ricochets paintballs off. The cover covers all sizes all size tanks and is availalbe in different colours. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I recommend you buy one of these for your tank |

|
| Marker Setup: |
TIppmann 98 (Every accessory I can think of)
custom assembled Autococker
PT Punisher |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
It has a sticky pad at the back, fits many tank sizes, available in quiet colors. Not too flashy. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
It has loose threads, it can spin on the bottle a bit. Very overpriced (like most bottle covers) |
|
| Review: |
All in all, it was the best one for my tastes at the time, though now I'd buy a Dye tank cover. The Rase is definately better than the Redz one.
I'd never play without a tank cover on my air tank, that's just too much risk to take scratching it. The rase ones are pretty nice, although overpriced. The Dye ones are excessively nice (like so many other luxury paintball goods) but I'd say the Dye ones are easily better if they fit your tank. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I give it an 8 for being decent quality but nothing special, poor value (but not poorer than others), being available in non-flashy designs, and doing its job. |

|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Fits like a glove
Looks cool w/ the twin strap
Professionally made - you can tell by just looking at it.
Has a rubber parts at the end to prevent slides when put on your shoulder
Cheap, got mine for $15.99
Again, it looks cool |
|
| Weaknesses: |
No squegee holder, but doesn't matter anyways
hmmm, nothin really |
|
| Conclusion: |
Just bought it today actually but has no problem at all putting it and it just made my 68 tuff skin looks tight. newayz it's just me. If it's the same price w/ Dye, I would get a Dye, but for this price I can't complain. |
