[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

I am using a Panasonic micro convection oven, and I love it.
It uses a touch pad also.
I am using clear dimotape.
I just punch out little round circles from the strip of tape and place 
each circle in the center of each button.
This way, sighted people can use the oven as well as a blind person.
 From time to time, we remove the circles, clean the pad, and put new 
ones back on the pad.
The other thing you might want to remember is that a lot of ovens have 
charts written near the buttons, so if you use non clear tape, you will 
probably be covering up the charts as well as other short instructions 
whitch have been printed on the face of the touchpads.
Yes, it is good that microwaves are easy to use.
