I am pissed off at myself.
I picked up Hulkamania 3 on VHS today and there was a sticker I was stuck on it and I was tryig to get it off with Nail Polish Remover. Me being stupid, I accidently spilled it on the actual tape itself. I'm really pissed of right now as this was really a cool tape.
So...
Is the tape actually broken now?
Is it safe to play it in the VCR
Did I screw myself?

Let it dry and test it out?

^LOL. I figured that, but I've read that in other cases with other liquids, VCRs get broken as well. I was seeing if anyone has been in my shoes before

Can you see the part of the tape you spilled it on? Might be something to just kinda watch because Acetone will eat plastic. Might eat the tape and/or leave a residue. Id inspect it before trying to play it.

It spilled on pretty much half the tape, but I wiped it off immediately

chances are you accidentally cleaned the tape of any dust!

People still watch VHS tapes? I do. lol I have a movie collection of like my 50 most favorite movies. No point in tossing them all out, only to spend like $1000 to buy them again on Blue Ray. |
