Be careful with the tape, if it starts coming off life can get
interesting - if you think dirty blades are bad, you haven't seen
anything yet. Just keep an eye on it & replace it before it starts
wearing through the leading edge.

I've used it on Bell 47's & Hiller 12's - can't tell you if it was
"approved", but it definitely saves wear & tear on the blade. You'll
want to have the exact same length on both blades in the exact same
location, or you'll be rebalancing...

Actually there is a "proper " tape and it's been used mostly for erosion
control by various militarys including or own, I can look up the P/N if
there's a need, don't know all the aircraft it has been on though.
