I agree with Ludwig/Manfred that the tape is to be used sparingly on something like the glossy surface of his beautiful new Canyon (though I would think a small patch wrapping each side of the fork and the seatstays would do not harm). And it is no substitute for bright clothing w/ reflective surfaces.
I have no idea to its availability here in Japan, it was simply an article and video I came across that I thought you guys would have interest in. I suspect we could get hold of a roll or two without much difficulty.
