Hello friends,
When I am loading my film holders (modern, plastic, both 8x10 and 4x5) most of them have flaps which lie down nicely and let me slide the film in easily, whilst a few have very stiff/tight tape on the flaps, which makes them stand up rather than lie down. This makes those holders a b*tch to load and unload (plus I'm worried about scratching my film).
Visually it is impossible to distinguish the stiff from the loose. I have had no leaks with either (at least not at the flap end).
Would it be OK to score the tape gently with a knife? Would that help, or do I have to re-tape them? (In which case, what tape to you use?)
