Has anyone ever seen a perforation repair tape, like Perf-Fix for Standard 8 or Super 8? Or for 9.5mm?
I've always seen them only for 16mm and 35mm.
It could be a valid alternative to tape like Cir when a film has a lot of broken holes, but I think it does not exist.

One can use Kodak press tape for both super 8 and 8mm or use 16mm perfix tape then use a ciro splicer to cut the extra holes.

Thanks, Jim.
Unfortunately, the 16mm holes has different sizes compared to 8mm and Super 8 holes.
I'll continue to use tape splicer.
