Default Clear Yaw string tape?

I have seen a few gliders that had yaw strings attached with something
other than the white tape most of us use. It was either a clear tape
or clear sticker. If any of you use something other than the white
tape to attach your yaw string please share what you use. Thanks!


Bear 3M make a an outstanding clear flexible tape currently retailed
as "clear all weather" tape. Comes in a roll approx 2" in width.

A lot dearer than and has a different texture from packaging tape. It
is backed with a strong adhesive which remains with the tape when you
pull the old tape off, and is highly resistant to lifting due weather
or exposure. Once you put it on, it stays there until you deside to
take it off. Good stuff. Highly recommended.
