How about a straight wrap application (instead of spiral wrap), perhaps with a cable tie on either end, tightening the cable ties as you go? The tape may need to be a little wider for straight wraps or maybe just overlap. I think the concept has potential for when you can't get shrink tubing over an end - thanks.
It looked like you were melting the cables! I saw the white cord on the left side create bubbles. Is that just one solid strand of copper wire under the tape now?
The heat actually warms up the adhesive so it can be applied. So, the heat serves two purposes, getting the heat shrink to start shrinking and helping the adhesive to become sticky.
Why would you use heat shrink tape for that? Wouldn't you use a cable tie? (the clue being in the name). It's not a good advert as it's made a proper mess of it
If you need to wrap a large length of grouped cables , say a meter long, this would be much neater . I don't know how much this stuff costs , and whether this makes it only viable for hobby or maker projects. The only other thing i can think of is to give fixed cables better shielding. Maybe this would create overheating tho in some cases...

Nice video, but next time could you add more interruptions to show your logo more often?
Noted!

No cables were damaged in the process
Glad I watched the video, I was wondering if it worked.... now I know it doesn't
Attach a deflector to your heat gun for improved distribution of heat.
Good concept. Why not have it mildly adhesive to start wrapping. Heat just shrinks it.

I always use my oven gloves even when the oven is cold, I forgot to mention, I'm a robot.

Uh, I think those GIANT floves are just WRONG.

1.25x is even better!
Nasty.

Take the gloves off.
