Ryan, have them e-mail me a pic of their setup and the sleeve they want to use, and I can give them some more direct feedback. You've already got my e-mail address

In general, I don't see a problem with a sleeve over pneumatic components, provided it can be quickly and easily moved/removed for inspection, it doesn't alter the component in any way, and it doesn't compress the component (like a hose clamp would, for example).
