Can i use the black tape (electrical tape) to prevent the short of circuit board? - eviltoast

I have read about some guides and in the progress doing the dactyl manuform, and I have seen that many people used some tape called “kapton tape” or used some shells pulled out from the wire to seperate the columns and rows of the matrix.

I want to know that is it safe to use the electrical tape for this purpose because I have read some comments said that the electrical tape will melt and cause everything around it sticky.
