19 mm lug nut socket

I want to buy a 19 mm lug nut socket that is teflon coated on the inside, so it won't scratch my painted lug nuts. Does anyone know where I can get one besides Pelican parts. They told me it would take 3 weeks. I don't have 3 weeks to wait. Thanks all

I use Ziploc freezer bag sections to protect sensitive wrenching operations.

There are lots of sources, but it is bad form to recommend another parts supplier on the Pelican forum, would you not agree? Mine is a 24mm socket with a plastic insert.

I'm not trying to sidestep Pelican. They just got another $1,000 from me. But it's not my fault they let themselves run out of an item that takes 3 weeks to restock. I think that's easy to understand.

+1 on the freezer bags. The lug nuts remained scuff free and the freezer bag made a tight fit between the lug nut and the socket.
