John,
We have used another cheaper brand and have not had good luck with the tape.  There were corners that would not adhere permanently on the slide and actual uplifting of the tape on our cytology slides.  We had complaints from the technical staff and our pathologists.

I understand that another company is now marketing film that can be used on
the Sakura Coverslip machine.  I also understand that we could probably save
a considerable amount of money by using this film.  My only concern is,
"Does it work?", since I don't think very many people have experience with
it in the USA.  Can anyone enlighten me on the facts of usage if you use
this film?  Thank you in advance.
