Is anyone else squeamish about leaving the adhesive tape (it binds the film to the backing) on 120 film during processing? With the Delta films, if the tape is not removed, it seems to retain bluish dye that drips off while the films are hanging to dry.

I cut the taped end of the film off before I hang it to dry.
But even if I didn't I wouldn't worry.

I cut the end of the film with the adhesive tape prior to loading it to the tank. It has happened to me with old film with some paper adhesive tape, the tape thing breaking down to pieces that dried all over my film.
