Does anyone recall a previous posting some time back that outlines how to iron out a crinkled tape?  I'm sure I saved it, but with upmteen listings saved over the years in two different computers, it would probably take the whole 3-day weekend to find it, and it's just easier to ask again.


I just found this in the archives.  I hope it helps - it's from Jerry.

Small wrinkles on the tape can be carefully removed with
clothes-iron on LOWEST position and with GENTLE  pressure atop
soft fabric surface. I tried this on an orig. "BBS"  scrap tape
and it worked fine ! I don't think this will work on newer tapes
with matte and/or coloured surfaces
