I can't speak to the method using that material, but here's a tip I picked up from here using an old inner tube as the material.
If you just wrap the tube around, you'll notice that your mounting bracket won't stay put. Then someone pointed out the error of my ways- I was missing a 'friction agent'. Tape one end of the tube to the rack leg/strut, wrap the tube around itself a few times, then tape it to itself.
