As /u/kent_eh pointed out, Kapton tape is frequently used for this because it’s heat resistant. But if you’re trying to position a large component body or a cable, you might want something more like helping hands. You could also use ceramic modeling clay (not polymer clay) if you want something that behaves more like sticky tack. It won’t be as sticky, but it’d be easily deformed to hold a part in place and won’t melt with heat.
This is more for anyone else that needs it, but this tape has a size that fits it about perfect. Also while I believe pin #3 is the only one required for it to work, pins 1 and 2 can also be covered without causing any issues.
I just recovered from this exact same thing this week with PLA (printing something right now actually). Get the hot end hot and pick away at the material with pliers or scissors (toenail clippers work great). You don't want a jerking motion, you want a crushing/cutting motion - don't put stress/force on the printer. Use a heat gun to soften the material if you need to. DONT SHRED THE RED AND WHITE (black?) WIRES ON THE RIGHT SIDE. Destroy the Kapton tape & insulation (yellow) and order some more on amazon. You might have to take the hot end off. The real question is if you can separate the wires from the material. If you can do that everything else on the hot end is durable and you can scrape it off. Dont heat it up if you remove the thermocouple wire.

This is after i got all the material away from teh wires. You can then unscrew the white wires and get them away from the hot end and go to town: http://imgur.com/a/zwTQR
Havent done the IPS Mod but here’s a link to where I bought my kapton tape:

That's an odd failure mode. Sounds like the clutch ring got stuck or something. Either way, the new one should be with you for a long time~
As for wobble, I did the tape fix, and it was dead solid for a little while, but I've since noticed the nib clicking on the inside of the barrel again while I'm writing. I'm planning to try Kapton tape instead of the clear packing tape that's currently on there, and I'm gonna try adding in an o-ring at some point once I either decide to buy 99 more than I need at that link or find a source for smaller quantities (gonna try Home Depot, they're size A005), for what that's worth.
Ok - please - stop colorizing these things blue! Neither Meridiani Planum nor the Martian Sky look like that.

What you're doing with this kind of colorization is making it worse. I mean -the cable right infront of the camera is wrapped in kapton tape - which is definitively orange and yet your video is editing it to be blue. I get what you're trying to do - but it's not working and is both confusing people and stoking conspiratorial nonsense.
“Kapton tape” /Polyimide Tape
From Wikipedia: Due to its large range of temperature stability, and its electrical isolation ability, Kapton tape is usually used in electronic manufacturing as an insulation and protection layer on electrostatic sensitive and fragile components.
