There is also some liquid electrical tape products. I've only used it for interior lighting wires where a previous resident installed high wattage bulbs and cooked the insulation on the old wiring. I've also only seen it in black. The can I've got comes with a brush applicator built into the cap. Think I bought it at Harbor Freight but I'm sure it's available lots of places. The fusing tape actually sounds pretty good.
