Wrapping bars - tips plz

I have cork tape on my bars and my last job has lasted almost three years. I do have a bit of electrical tape just because I prefer it to the TT strips of tape that came with it. I like to wrap as evenly as I can because I like to ride bare handed. I think it's about time for a change though.

Never used to last that long though until I discovered how to put it on properly. You need to get it warm first. Do it on a warm day or hold the tape above a boiling kettle. Then it's getting the amount of overlap just right so that the sticky part actually goes onto your bars. And of course the stretching, which is easier when it's warm. Hope I haven't lost my skills though as it's been a while.
