The CF blades are definitely not easy to see. I use very thin strips of electrical tape on the tips. I use red and white. Works like a charm for me.

thanks very much!!!! since then ive used floressent orange vinyl tape and white they seem to work pretty well... and tracking setting has been by useing white out on one blade grip its kinda easer...oh and the floressent orange also helps with the clearance issues when in the house.....he. he. he. what the wife dont know wont hurt..
thanks again...much appriciated!
