Any question answered...

Could I put insulation tape, probably a few layers on top of a stripe of LED light? Would there be any safety risk? I know LED light only give out little heat but I don't intent to burn my studio down anytime soon. Why do I need to put tape on top of LED light? I fucked up some construction a big time and while I can start the whole thing again, it'd be better in many ways if I could fix it...

how about...
