hassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx  Cleaning tips are made of chamois right??? Then take 
the tip of your finger while a tape is playing and hold it very gently 
against the heads as they spin.  Use the back side of the headwheel where the 
tape does not touch. It will clean the most contaminated head. Be gentle and 
patient as you do this. Hollis
       sometimes flux remover works but make sure you clean it off right 
afterwards
 so it dosent eat glue off the heads
