Default Re: Water damaged video tapes

Hi. Not sure what can happen with video tapes, but with audio open reel tapes we've found baking them can help, though obviously at a VERY low temperature because of the plastic case. It's worth a try to see if anything improves. Of course, the moistutre'could have damaged the tape irreversibly.
