Looking for tape which is EXTREMELY slippery

[pinball gizzard]

I have an application where I need an adhesive tape which is extremely slippery. The tape will stick onto a plastic cabinet on which a metal hinge frequently rubs. I want the tape to both protect the plastic and also reduce the friction of the rubbing. Ideally, the tape would be black.

In essence I would like a black duct tape with a teflon coating.

Any recommendations?

I think Lee Valley has the tape you are looking for. It is made from that high density (?) plastic and is very slippery.

Boating stores sell teflon tape. It is very expensive, but they sell it by the inch.

Well, I uh, well.... Okay fine, I'll tell you. I bought the biggest damned TV I could find that would fit into the wife's choice of TV cabinet. It fits, but the metal hinges on the tuck-away doors rub against the TV mildly at one point.
