Just had an idea.................went in the back to my testing lab.
Where is a roll of duct tape ? I asked. We found it. Took a few two sided super slippery lens of which we have many, stuck a piece on the front and another one on the back.
Went to edger..................and bingo it works.............no slippage whatsoever.
Now removing the tape ? It came off easy, the adhesion was just the degree and it peels off easy.
I think that just found the lowest cost solution for the poor labs and frustrated opticians that have to do all the redo's for slipped and turned lenses.
However I have no financial connections to the duct tape manufacturers, but maybe should buy some shares at today's low prices if the whole optical world starts using my idea. :hammer:

A roll of shiny grey duct tape.
...................duct tape was originally developed during World War II in 1942 as a water resistant sealing tape for ammunition cases.[1][2] Permacel, then a division of Johnson & Johnson, used a rubber-based adhesive to help the tape resist water and a fabric backing to add strength. It was also used to repair military equipment quickly, including jeeps, firearms, and aircraft because of these properties.
