Saving Moldy Memories - VHS Video Tape Mold Cleaning Before & After

In this video, Phil cleans, yet more moldy VHS tapes that have been rejected by other transfer companies and told that nothing can be done and to basically throw the video tapes away because they are beyond salvaging. This is of course, completely untrue, and as demonstrated in this video, Phil will delicately open up the VHS harassing and carefully clean the videotapes and remove the mold and then digitize the VHS tape to MP4.

I've cleaned my vhs but it doesn't works... The tape doesn't move, it's stuck... What can i do? What is the solution?

[@gotmemories]

Find a local transfer company and see if they can help.

What kind of protective gear do you use when handling mould? I noticed that you weren't wearing gloves.

[@gotmemories]

Face mask and eye covering. Gloves make it difficult and not really required imo.

[@gotmemories]

Use an array of equipment

[@g.h.smedia5504]

What are you using to take the excess mould off the tape?

[@gotmemories]

A blade wrapped in cloth. One of a few options.

Question: How many cleaning cycles do you perform on the tape before attempting to play it in the VCR?

[@gotmemories]

2-5 times depending on how bad it is
