Electrical tape is not as opaque as I thought it was. Whoops.

I used it to cover a little red window, and wound up with green blobs.

Electrical tape is not really opaque at all. If I want opaque, I use foil tape. Some brands have a slight tendency of pinholes, though, so two layers is indicated.

My plan for next time was to tape a bit of aluminum foil in that spot. And to remind myself that I have to turn the knob farther at the beginning than at the end, but that's something I should've thought of from the beginning.

snarky comment

You merely got the frequency bands it's transparent for wrong....

Okay, point. I should've specified visible light. (I would've been less surprised if I'd been using infrared; I already knew some black plastics transmit that.) Snark acknowledged.

The tape -- it does nothing. I can see your nipples from here.:P

And they're lovely tasty nipples, too. Urm. I shouildn't say that. But it's true.

(Ahem) Foil tape is a favourite of mine. Yes. I got distracted. Sorry.
