Re: How hot does it get?
I would personally reccomend 3M super 33 or 88, about $4-5 a roll but it is the best tape on the market hands down. I have been using it in my job for over 12 years, nothing else performs ion ALL temperature better than super 33 or 88. Just curious, why can't you use a for of heat shrink to cover up what you need to cover? or is it not feasible? Randy

Re: How hot does it get?
Thanks. Well, I am using heat shrinks in most places but the are places that I am tapping into another wire and I can't use heat shrink.
