Bought some today and put it on. Seemed just like duct tape to me. Now
I'll just see how long it lasts and how good it holds up. I'm using it on a
3" section of welding cable that got shorted and melted the coating.

Time will tell. In the meantime, I'm sure there will be other trials. I
took off a piece of red duct tape I put on a cable a couple of weeks ago to
mark. The tape had already started to frazzle, and I had to use Goof Off to
get the slimy glue off the outside of the cable.
