My Kindle Fire is a typically featureless black slab with one button, two small speakers, and no fasteners. After a few days in my pocket, the upper-left corner began collecting dust on the inside face of the cover glass:

That’s not terrible, but it does look ugly and lowers the contrast a bit in that corner. As nearly as I can tell, the speaker grilles provide the only way for that dust to get in, although this was a refurb unit and perhaps the seal around the rim is broken.
In any event, the speaker grilles look like this:

I slapped a strip of 3M Micropore tape over the openings as a stop-gap fix:

After a few days, the dust wasn’t getting any worse, so I ran a scalpel blade around the speaker opening and sank the tape atop the grille:

The advantage of Micropore tape is that it won’t completely block the already feeble sound from the speakers.
Since you have 3M micropore tape in your arsenal that’s an automatic +5 Geek and and +10 Old School Cool.
Back in the pre-CNC days, it was a good way to put a conformal layout layer on a workpiece: write on it, punch through it, clamp it, drill it, peel it off.
At my current rate, that roll will become a hand-me down.
Old School, fer shure! Thanks for the good words…
