No--you really need good temperature control for two reasons (at least in my experience): 1. Magnetic media on a mylar substrate doesn't have much thermal inertia, unlike a PCB. So when the temperature goes way above set point, it can do damage. Recall that you're working with plastics. 2. You're walking a fine line on temperature. Much higher, and the medium could be damaged, but too low and baking does little good. Check with the tapeheads people--the audio tape fraternity does a lot of this sort of thing. --Chuck
