I had bought 20 brand new (Not NOS.) 10 1/2" reels of blank tape that turned out to have an ugly shed issue.:sigh: Man, was I torqued 'cuz new tape is NOT cheap!!:no::rant::gigglemad

But before I went through the trouble and expense of shipping it back to the vendor, I went to the tape forum and sought the advice of our resident tapeheads.:scratch2:

Goldear came to the rescue with advice on how to properly "bake" the tape
using a food dehydrator---sounds wierd, but it works! It saved me the trouble of returning nearly $600 worth of RTR tape.:thmbsp:

All Hail the Mighty Goldear!

And, again, Thanks Man!

It is my understanding that baking the tape is a temporary fix. It does not cure the problem, but gives you a time window to transfer the tape.
