Gen X, this is your time to shine. My friend has spilled a cup of tea (containing dairy milk) on their partner's limited edition Bob Vylan cassette, of which there are apparently only 200 in existence. I am providing desiccant beads, but is there anything else that needs to be done and will the cassette still play?
@afewbugs Opening the shell to clean out excess liquid isn’t too hard so long as you’re gentle and make sure you don’t lose the metal and felt bit that goes under the spot where it meets the player head. Back in the day I transferred tape reels into new cases a few times because I was a disaster and cracked them. It’s probably a good idea to do that to get the bulk of the liquid out, then reassemble it to clean the tape itself like others have described (maybe by gently running it through a couple cotton pads and isopropyl alcohol), then take the case apart again to get rid of any lingering residue. You can do this!
