Paul Lund: How do I soak tape

You convinced me to swallow my anxieties and go with a wet tape "scroll". But I have some questions.
1. With the tape rolled up, how do you get it wet through?
2. I can imagine this driping mass of wet tape that is more epoxy that tape. How do you avoid too much epoxy?
The basic problem, as I see it, is getting the tape wet but not having excessive epoxy.
Any tips are appreciated.
