I bought some of this stuff awhile ago but hadn't used any (it's pretty expensive) but I used some when installing a Keyless Entry in my wife's car last weekend and it's really nice stuff. It stretches and seals on itself very well (to well if you accidentally fold it over on itself). I used it where I soldered the lock/unlock wire leads to the OEM splices in the car wiring, to seal the area back up since shrink tubing was not an option. I also used it to seal where the wires connect to the relay terminals (I didn't use relay connectors) to keep anyting from grounding any of the exposed portions of the relay terminals. So if you haven't used it, I highly recommend it, especially to wrap connections that might get wet.
