Ernst, I finally stumbled across my roll. It's on a red plastic core and 
labeled:

PTFE THREAD SEAL TAPE
MIL SPEC T-27730A
1/2" x 520"
MADE IN MALAYSIA

I didn't have to cut the spool; it was easy enough to bend it out of the way.

There's at least a good 3/8" of tape on the roll, so I don't think there's much 
chance of the red plastic influencing the readings. However, the i1 Pro's light 
visibly leaks through the sides of the stacked tape, which probably *does* 
alter the readings.

Attached are a half-dozen readings. Curiously, all have L* values over 100. I 
don't recall seeing that happen with either my BabelColor Watch Your White 
target or the Tyvek sample.

I think your theory has merit, but the practical application probably needs 
work....

Cheers,
