Erasing MiniDV Tapes

If your in a situation where you must reuse a miniDV tape, what is the best way to do it without a bulk eraser? I'm planning on creating a "blankFile" in Vegas that is 64 minutes of solid black with 64 minutes of no sound and doing print to tape. Is this the best of the worst or is there a better way? Any advice?

I highly recommend:

TapeResources

$2.50 for Sony in small quantities, dropping to $2.29 in large quantities.

I see that their Sony HDV tapes are finally under $10. Darn good price. Nice people.

i'll second the recommendation of Tape Resources, I have been a customer of theirs for darn near 20 years. Seph and his employees are great.
