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.

Good video!, What equipment is that?, I love vhs tapes haha asking as one tape I have the tape keeps getting loose in my vhs tv like i keep having to manually rewind It

[@gotmemories]

Use an array of equipment

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

Lots of reasons as to why it’s not playing, more than likely the player. Clean that.
