+1 I use the Fizik gel on two bikes and really like it. On my Bianchi I just double wrapped right over the existing tape. No problems and about the same effect (although the bar is thicker with a double wrap then gel). My Trek has a carbon bar and so far I've been happy with just a single layer of the Bontrager tape.
