KP Tape!? - been there, done that - it still comes off the same as the other tape, taking the sections with it!! Most of our slides lose the tape 'slips in around about two years.

Far better to go with a glass coverslipper. They are a bit slower, but still faster than hand coverslipping...and glass is for good!!!
