John,
You can improve that situation by putting your slide after it has been uv
exposed on dry ice before removing the tape.  Just let it sit on the dry ice
for several minutes before removing the tape, it is never perfect but this
helped me with the problem you described.

		Hello all,  I have the tape system and it works fairly well
at cutting
		bone.  But do any of the users of this system have trouble
with the tape
		window pulling off some of the bone as it is removed?  The
bone appears
		stippled or irregular and has holes in it.  Please help!
Thanks,  John
