What do I use to band/compress coil springs?

I'm about to install a new set of long coil springs in the front of my 82 C10. I want to install them myself. I was told to get them compressed and banded so they would go in easily. These are not stock springs, they are longer. What should I use to band them? 10Ga wire? Rope? Thanks.
