It goes under the last piece of shrink. If you get really good at it, when
you shrink the outer sleeve, the RTV will just barely ooze out of the ends,
insuring that everything inside is hermetically sealed.

Join-solder the wires to the main cable with shrink over them, then
shrink over the both wires, then a large shrink over the whole mess. A
large dab of RTV at the center of the junction before you shrink, then
the shrink will force the RTV into any voids in the junction.

Damn, RTV inside the shrink! Why didn't I think of that.

Jim, please explain that again step by step. Which layers of shrink does
the RTV go between? I'm thinking of glider trailer wiring.
