    It's a strange feeling tape, when you rub two surfaces of it together is doesn't feel that slippery, but when you add a load of pressure to the surfaces it feels just the same, then you push the surfaces together as hard as you can and it still slips just the same.

    Anyway, I've got a load of it for making jigs for my new workshop, if any airgun tuners, who have posted on the subject, would like a few inches for the price of postage send me a pm. You can send me a stamped addressed envelope and I'll send you six inches back, until I run out of spare.

    No rush, it will be here for a while. Please share your experience for the benefit of other tweakers.

    PM received. There is a typo on the website I linked, the tape is 0.25mm thick not 0.025mm.
