Guitar picks...they come in many sizes/thicknesses/degrees of stiffness.
Top it off, they're almost the perfect size.

That sounds likely , what do you mean by top it off? I may try gluing one in
a split or cut piece of wooden dowel. Whatever that material is , its
simulating human finger nail.
I too have held back mock american express cards but they are too floppy and
relatively thick for this task.

Should have read *To* top it off...just adding a further quality to the
preceding.

In fact, I saw instructions on the web somewhere for replacing cell
phone cases (by a company which sells such replacements). They sold
tools for installing their product--a t-? torx driver, and a....well, it
looked just like a guitar pick, but they called it something else and
charged a dollar or two for it.

One more quality to recommend the lowly guitar pick: they are (usually)
made of some sort of plastic--minimizing scratching/gouging if they
slip--and inhibiting the application of too much force.
