Never use head cleaner tapes. :eek:

Be very careful with compressed air. One misdirected spray of air and you have lubricants all over the wrong places. If following this guide, I might add vinyl/etc gloves for obvious reasons. Upper drum and capstan area is the most important and gets dirty quickest. I've done this a lot and still occasionally f- something up due to not paying attention or shaky hands. Be very careful and if it's an expensive piece of gear, consider paying a few bucks for a professional service.
