Collins, CO Lines: 37 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. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ Keith A.
