For a while 20 years ago, there were oversize vinyl write protect tabs
that worked much better than the paper or foil ones.
I have a particular hatred for gummy, sloppy electrical tape. While
it might work, I don't want that goop anywhere near my diskettes.
Oooh, how about "Slipknot Grey"? ;)
For a time, 3M packaged plastic clear red-tinted write-enable tabs
with their 8" diskettes. I owned a couple of drives that were blind
to its presence--it was very frustrating until it dawned on me that
it was the tabs' fault.
