I used to use plastic sticky tape (any colour) to insulate between inner and outer of RG-213 coax cable where I'd joined it (typical amateur using odd lengths!) . Then I found I was losing 1-2 dB at each joint at 70 cms so abandoned it and used foamed polyethylene instead which is fine. Don't know if there are different types of plastic tape with different RF properties.
