I've never used the Painter before, and I heard you could use it to color EU Glass Fibre Cables, e.g. to prevent them from connecting. Is this still a thing, or was this removed in 1.1.4? Because I'm not able to figure it out.

I made a painter (2 iron, 3 wool, looks like a paint roller), and then dyed it by crafting it with an ink sac, so now I have a black painter. I also have glass fibre cables. At this point, I'm stuck.
I try crafting the cables with the painter, but nothing happens. I try placing the cables, and then right clicking them with the painter in hand, but nothing happens.
I then right click a block of white wool and it turns black.

If it's not a thing anymore, is there still a way to prevent cables from connecting? Micro-blocks don't seem to work.

Black is used to take the color off a cable i believe. So, use any color except for black and it should work.

Thanks, that was the problem. Strange, I would have expected White to clear the color, but whatever.
