Last year I re-wrapped Dan's wire harness with proper harness tape. For the ends I then used regular black electrician's tape cut on an angle to secure the harness tape. Well, most of those ends are

Just a suggestion: I too have found that electrical tape when exposed to heat and just 'use', will tend to curl. I have not given it much thought, just maybe adding some fresh tape to solve the prob

I don't see a big problem with using a small section of heat shrink to secure the ends of the loom wrap. You should be easily able to cut that off if you needed to. Heat shrinking the whole loom woul

Bob, I always use just a small piece of heat shrink tubing on the ends. Really works good and keeps the elements at bay, etc. It is very easy to replace if you ever need to. Just a quick little cut w

It may be me but I've never had that problem. I've always cut the tape straight and stretch it some during application rather than just wrapping it around. Seems to stick really well for me. May be

Robert is right-on here. Further, I would suggest using only Scotch 33+, avoiding the cheap tapes. There IS a difference. Use moderate stretch when applying the main wraps, but stop stretching as you
