Both DEI and ThermoTec sell black, 1" and 2" wrap. It's less of a hassle to have it black first. Consider a double layer. You can even put a layer of ceramic batting in between layers - check Longacre racing for the batting.

A hose clamp or piece of wire also works if you don't want to go buy the stainless ties. Sometimes you can catch a deal from DEI and get free ties with the heat wrap though.
