Every cassette is visually inspected before we begin, and we clean mouldy reels with specialist fluid and microfibre cloths to give them the best chance of a successful playback. If a tape is too far gone — for example, if the magnetic coating has separated from the base — we’ll let you know before proceeding so you’re never charged for work we can’t complete.
