Rescue Tape to the rescue.  <rescuetape.com> - also available from the
Amazing place.

Originally developed as a repair tape, it's stretchable, self-sealing,
high insulation rated, UV resistant, comes in several colors for easy
ID, and no residue when removed.  I had several antenna feed points
wrapped with it and after 10+ years the connectors underneath were as
bright and shiny as they were when first installed.
