I've wondered if you might not make DECtape tape
from 3/4" video tape.
I know that DECtape has mylar on both sides but what if you somehow
glued two strips of video tape together with the mylar backing on the
outside. Probably want to build a jig of some sort and I'm not sure
what glue to use.
I have read on several occasions about the mylar on both faces of the
tape. I have over 300 reels of DECTape in my collection. Most of these
are 3M Scotch branded but around 30 of them are DEC branded in the blue
plastic boxes. I have never seen one with mylar on both sides. This may
have been something that existed early on but certainly wasn't the norm.
