    insulating tape

    Self amalgamating tape is thicker than electrical insulation
    tape, and when you stretch and apply it it turns to rubber.
    Electrical tape is not waterproof, so there is no point using it.

    You will know by the price what you are buying - electrical
    tape probably costs €2, a large roll of self amalgamating
    tape costs about €13.00

    A pack of Wrigleys Extra costs about €0.50 :) Just joking -
    use self amalgamating tape.
