Larry,
	Was it Ray-Chem splice kit.  I have used these while I was
in the Navy to cover splices that were made in submarine ballast
tanks.  Yes, they make very water tight slice covers.

I found a heatshrink tubing here that is used to cover electrical 
connections for deep well pumps.  It has a plastic material inside that 
becomes a Gel like substance when heated.   I used it last year to cover 
the large beads on a balun and the coax end for a temporary multiband 
dipole antenna.  It has worked excellently and handles easily a KW.

This type of heatshrink tubing is commonly available here in hardware
stores.
