Wrap with Scotch 33+, coat entire 33+ layer with liquid electrical tape, after
drying then tape a second layer of 33+ on top of it. Impermeable to water, UV
resistant. You can take all of this off at a later date and your connectors
will be nice and corrosion-free. I've done it this way for 20 years.
