[QUOTE="SoCalPSD, post: 180203, member: 1408"] For me it all depends really, with stereo and signal wires for gauges and what not ill strip wires twist em together tight fold it over and shrink wrap it twice with the second layer being longer than the first. Reason for that is I actually tested a signal wire from an old sub that I had installed by a shop that's been in business for a very long time and I measured half a ohm of resistance in the solder joint, big deal? No not really but im weird like that. But when it comes to anything under the hood or that's on the outside of the truck I solder and I use shrink wrap from an electrical supply house that has some sort of hard gel inside it. Thats suppose to seal when the shrink wrap shrinks. It basically oozes out as it shrinks and then its tight and as it was described to me basically as a sealer to keep things from rusting/corroding/oxidizing from the weather.
