These products are impossible to remove completely and leave damaging chemical residues in the paper. It is also easy to abrade the paper and ink surface using these products. White twill tape to secure damaged volumes. If you are tying rolled records, first use a piece of 10 point card or mylar around the roll before tying, so the tape doesn't distort the document. Rubber bands or red cloth tape.
Rubber bands degrade, sticking to paper, causing it to degrade, and staining it.
The red color can rub off the red cloth twill tape, or bleed if exposed to water, causing permanent staining. Use buffered storage materials that meet NARA preservation requirements. All folders should be low-lignin, as should boxes housing photographs. Acidic folders, spacer boards, interleaving, boxes or other storage containers. These materials contribute to the degradation of records.
