Most definitely.  Two years ago I went to a garage sale of a retired
electrician and bought 20 rolls of Scotch 33+ that looked new and
were in their original packaging.  Every roll had the problem described
above.  All were useless.  I wonder what causes it."



Just a guess......... stored at to high a temperature???
