dip your arms in a bucket of cold water, leave them for a bit. Either that or a cold shower.

Cold Water

The Wrap is a fibreglass type substance - I use it for sealing Boiler Doors and Burner Plates at work

As said, when washing it off in hot water, your pores open and it can get in them making them stay itchy

After I use it, I have a good scrub with lots of soap/shower gel and cold water - itches briefly after i'm done still but nowhere near as bad as it has been when I used to use warm/hot water...
