I have been told that cassette type head cleaners are not
a good choice for cleaning VCR heads. (by a salesman who
didn't try to sell me anything)
Evidently, they will clean the heads for free if you bought
the VCR at their store.
Question 1:
Are cassette head cleaners really not any good?
Question 2:
If the salesman can clean the heads I'm sure I can. How
do I do it?( Buy a kit a Radio Shack? )
Question 3:
What about the tape path? I would imagine VCRs have
rollers and capstans similar to cassette decks?
Thank you all in advance.
