The wax will "dry" a little and become tackier, and so then I had the mylar wrapped around the joiner bar. You don't have to be "exact" with the size of the mylar. Let it hang out over the ends a little bit, but only let the beginning and ending of the wrap overlap by about 1/8 or 1/4" inch. These tubes are going to be under a lot of stress, so the more flush the fit, the better.
