Default Question about Rush Baffles

I ordered a set of baffles for my Rush pipes and they came in today; however, the packing is wrapped in what looks like 2 inch masking tape. Do I try to remove the masking tape before installing the baffles or leave it on and it will burn off? I did a search and found a zillion hits on rush pipes but didn't see one that addressed my question. I tried calling them but it was after 5 P.M. and they won't be open till Monday. Anyway, being the impatient person I am, I know someone on here will know. Thanks in advance.

Leave the masking tape on and put the baffles in the mufflers. You'll be fine.

He is correct.

When I pulled my baffles to swap to a different size, I wrapped them back in masking tape.
