http://www.shrinktape.com/ ??? This stuff is polyester

Generically, heat shrink is irradiated polyolefin, so searching for that may
be more productive.

There's some really burly stuff used for fixing pipelines called Canusa
Wrapid - they show something like a roofing torch/weed burner being used to
shrink it on a 12" diameter pipe...

There's also some nifty stuff that you can wrap around a connection, then
put conventional heat shrink tubing over it.  The heat to shrink the tubing
melts the other wrap, making a waterproof seal, but one that can be xacto
knifed off, because it doesn't stick to things.  I can't remember what it's
called though..
