Here's some useful information on restoring old sticky tapes by Eddie Ciletti. The problem of sticky tapes such as Ampex from 20 years ago is very common and causes many machines to get so gummed up that they eventually grind to a halt. The cure for the tape is detailed by Eddie, but the machine must be thoroughly cleaned as well to prevent the problem recurring.

 We are building up quite a collection of old tape recorders ourselves. Some of these are still boxed as new although many years old.
