Vinyl Styl Audio Cassette Head Cleaner & Demagnetizer - for Home/Auto/Portable

Product Information

On some machines you can actually get your hands into the mechanism and put a finger on the roller to keep it from moving while you clean a little bit at a time. On very expensive machines there will actually be a seperate record and playback head in the same housing. A few drops are dropped into the two holes in the cassette window before the tape is placed into the tape machine and played. Also sometimes if you feel you are loosing out on clarity, use a fine Philips screw driver to tune the head.

On home units, if the door does come off it's usually by giving the face of the door a light pull up and away from the rest of the door. All rights reserved, no use of any element incorporated into this site without express written permission. If the machine has mechanical controls that engage even when the power is off, you can use this to put the machine in play. Nevertheless, it's very useful in bag making as it's incredibly sticky, very strong and you can bend it around lumps! Run through the deck for about 30 seconds, unless longer is needed, to help clean up the cassette head and capstans.

If ignored, it just keeps caking on reducing the highs in the audio at first and progressively making the sound muddier. Mine started to just barely, but I caught it and now it's completely undetectable after being put on the computer.

A hardened roller can sometimes be saved by removing it and soaking it in brake fluid for a few hours. The 20 ml bottle of high-quality cleaning fluid offers a safe and effective way to continue to enjoy your movies. I have found it easier to clean a pinch roller by scrubbing across the face of it in the same direction the capstan engages it. One of the joys of cassette tape is having to look for a bic pen to try to manually rewind a tape a machine has eaten!

Compact Cassette-shaped devices that have a cloth tape that can have liquid cleaning fluids added to it before being inserted into a tape deck and played for a short time. Compact Cassette-shaped devices that can be inserted into tape decks and played for a short time to polish the recording heads to remove smudges and dirt. Some of those cassette cleaners like that one leave behind a lot of lint and such on the heads and roller(s) so I shy away from using them.
