What what I have heard is that old tape is one thing that Kurt or nobody else can get off. Someone posted on a thread before about a restoration service "Gone with the stain." They do a lot of this kind of stuff.

"Gone With The Stain", and Dick Towle - it's now deceased founder - have been around for decades. From all accounts, they can get stains of all types and tape and album residue off cards and make them look like nothing ever happened. I would not assume that their methods are as "natural" as Kurt's Card Care claims theirs are. I think it's mostly harsh chemicals that are used, but supposedly it gets the job done.
For what it is worth there are also noted accounts of collectors who say that GWTS ruined their cards trying to get whatever offending material off of them. Not sure what happens in those cases. I'm guessing you have to submit a disclosure to not hold them accountable before they will work on your cards.
