Subject: [CR]Benotto tape wrapping advice sought

I haven't wrapped a set of bars with Benotto tape since around 1976 or so. I still remember that it was a moderately painful experience. I would appreciate any tips and tricks on how to minimize the suffering and end up in a neat job. While I wrap from bar ends to center with cloth tape and usually finish with a small amount of glue at the termination of the wrap under the bars, I think that I'd like to wrap from the center out with the Benotto tape and tuck it into the bar ends unless there is a clean way to terminate the wrap without resorting to electrical tape.

Thanks, Charlie
