Default Heat wrap

So many choices- White, black, copper, heat treated, 1.5mm thick up to 3.0mm thick.....
What do you guys who have used this stuff think is best? And did you use a sealant on it once fitted?

I have used the cheap ebay type version, and have found after time they brake down and make alot of mess and dust from the glass fiber.

I would recomend Dei exhaust wrap. I have had this on for a couple of years now and it is still looking like new.

use stainless steel locking wire to hold it on.

Contact Harvey Smith on this forum and he does it at a good price and top service.
