Or..

Dont bother?

why? /bump

Waters gets under the wrap, slowly rotts the steel away, you won't be any the wiser untill you remove the wrap or its rotten through and sounds like a tractor , personal experience that lol!

My mate has a full miltek system inc manifold on his fezzy ST150. He heat wrapped the manifold and decat. After a year or so it started to fray badly and you could see where it was keeping the water trapped in once he took it off.

Don't think it should affect stainless steel though should it?

Not stainless mate that'll be fine :)
