I have a technique. put the glass plate on some nonslip matting. then anchor the edge of the tape to my workdesk. I can then stretch the whole length of the glass and slide it down tight and smooth - well that's the theory.
Actually if the jar with the detergent solution hadn't mysteriously emptied itself (think it fell over) I reckon I'd have got it in one.
I'll refill the jar and try again tonight.

The tape is 15cm wide, that's the problem, it's just really awkward to handle. But I reckon with the detergent to let it slide a little and using the big scraper, it should work.
By comparison the 24mm wide painters tape is childsplay to use.

The other problem is how long every thing takes lol
I really need a few days doing nothing else but working out settings and print surfaces, rather than just a few hours at night and into the next day.

The kapton on the aluminium printbed is buggered. Scraper marks and painting it with abs glue (bad idea) have taken it's toll. There is no way in hell I can replace that inside the machie with a 15 cm roll of kapton tape.

Just as well I've got glass beds instead really :-)
