In my experience, that means they're fried.
Haven't played with reel to reel's for years now but I think a new
roller is in order.

I used some pinch roller cleaner that I don't usually use and it turned
my rollers into a sticky gooey mess. I usually use a slight soapy
solution or isopropol alcohol but this time I didn't and now the tape is
sticking to the rollers on my Studer A80 MKII. I have a session on
Tuesday. Do I have to order new ones real fast or can I save them?

Thanks for any help. I'll check back in a while.
