Need to regrip an iron set and my current set are Golf Pride MCC Plus 4's, which I like.

Will standard Tour Velvets with 4 layers of tape do the same job?

Sounds a daft question to type, but the Plus 4's are almost twice the price and will end up costing more than the irons :oops:

Just beware that extra tape obviously stretches the rubber and changes the feel of the grip. It will feel harder and reduce the shock absorption. The +4 grips are presumably built up with thicker rubber rather than tape so feel nicer than a DIY +4; especially as it's your lower, ungloved hand on that bit of the grip.

Actually decided to go MCC instead of Tour Velvet - 8 for ninety five quid.

I prefer the grip, so decided not to be so tight and like the red version I play already.
