Yup, it's a clear plastic tape that is used in places like Saudi and Iraq.  
Any desert area in which the dirt due to brown outs caused by rotor wash would  
damage the leading edges. Works pretty good. Would definitely protect the  
leading edge of the KR wing.

One of  my partners races cars with fiberglass bodies.   They put what they  
call helicopter tape on all the leading edges.  It looks like a clear  smooth 
tape that goes over the paint.  Apparantly they use it on  helicopters to 
protect 
areas as well.

Has anyone had any experience  with this product?  seems like it would be a 
good addition to leading  edges... will definitely handle 170+mph in the hot 
sun.
