This is the "Real" Tape Head Cleaner:

I soon will need to open the next bottle, #3 in 50 years is almost all used up. $7.79 at Fry's.

(No, I do not have that many Tape Heads, I use it to clean up after the horrible mistake a Chinese Chemist made in selecting a conductive paint on three of my four RCA remote controls. It is hard keeping just one of four working. :-II ;( *eg* ;-(*) )

q-tip, I buy 1,000 at a time.
