Default Shrink Wrap, Heat shrink, Shrink Heat......

ok, You know that black plastic stuff that you roll around wires, and then take a lighter to to melt them around the wires? What is that stuff called and where do you get it?

Ive been to ever single hardware/automotive store in my area, and the only think i can find is shrink tubing. What even worse is , i dont even know what to ask for. Everyone i try to explain it to dosent know what i am talking about.
