Anyone knows where to find??
« on: February 23, 2003, 01:56:52 pm »
Ok, This isn't exactly about SFC but it is about star trek.   I have just recently brought the entire Voyager collection on VHS from my local video shop, ex rental, for £10 a season!!  Anyway back to the point.  All the paper inside the sleves, the stuff with the pictures and what have you on them, Have stickers all over them.  Price tags and propety of etc.  Does anyone knopw where I can buy the sleves of the net?  I know its probebly a long shot, but I have to give it a try!!  Or alternativly does anyone know how to get stickers of glossy paper without damaging the paper underneath???

Thanks.

Neg on both counts, sorry.

Personally, I would try to find a way to remove the Voyager images from otherwise good video tape, but thats just me, lol!  

Have a nice day!

This might work. try with a proxy paper and stickers first to test for damage. Rubbing alcohol.  Maybe hair spray?

Carefully peel the stickers off, using a razor blade to start it. Go VERY slowly. Then use lighter fluid (not butane, real lighter fluid, like the kind that goes in Zippo lighters) on a soft cloth to remove the glue. The lighter fluid will evaporate, leaving the paper underneath in good shape. Don't over do it on the lighter fluid. Use just enough to get the job done. Be sure to test the lighter fluid on a part that is hidden or that you don't care about to be sure the ink doesn't run.
