Ding, Ding - That will have to rank as the worst advice of the year!!!
The spinning heads will spool up, crumple and crinkle that tape beyond
recognition.
DO NOT put that tape in ANY machine, it will be certain death to the
machine and more certainly the tape will be destroyed. The tape must be
cleaned by a qualified tape recovery company. If the shampoo has not
eaten the binder on the tape then most or all of it may be recovered. I
highly recommend calling www.AVRS.net they are fully capable of
recovering the tape.
