Hey Ironbut, we don't disagree. Re-read my earlier post where I recommended a couple of thorough cleanings of the machine.Also note that, more than once, I've recommended sending a sample to a mold analysis lab (which is not expensive to do). This is really the ONLY way to know what the stuff is, and how to proceed. I think you would agree.
As I wrote previously, molds and other fungi are all around us every day. They only have a chance to become an issue when we ignor them, giving them an opportunity to multiply freely. Leave a loaf of bread out for a few weeks, or don't clean your shower, and you'll see exactly what I'm saying.
"No dusting seen on the side of the tapes. Nothing visible to the naked eye on either side of the tape."
Tapes, or tape? DRam, please clarify. Have you checked the other tapes, or not? If not, take them outdoors before opening them.
For anyone who might be interested in "tape baking" (which deals with another problem of older tapes), see www.youramerica.net/tapebake.htm.
Btw, my previous reference to "Ironbutt" wasn't intended as an insult or anything - I simply didn't remember if you spelled your monikor with one "t" or two. Now I know. Although, "Ironbutt" would be humorous.
