Cleaning Head & Drum Help

Hi

I'm bob and need some help

I managed to pick up a TBC VCR for £60 at a car boot sale (no remote) its a Panasonic NV HS-960

I have put some photos of the VCR so that you can see the inside condition of it (without opening it)

I tested the vcr at home (Vcr Svideo to Camcorder (pass thru) than Camcorder to PC (via Firewire)

All looks ok, but i would like to get the heads and drums clean as a peace of mind and i am about to

embark to transferring 20 VHS tapes to MP4

I have read the guides and seen the videos on tube on how to clean the heads and drums , but i'm a

little nervous and opening the VCR up and trying it myself especially the drum cleaning procedure.

So i was wondering .... is there any forum members that can do that for me i will of course pay for the service and

all postage charges ( i live in the UK). If not can anyone recommend a shop where i can get it done, i can post off the VCR anywhere in the UK

i know there are lots of electrical shops around, but i wanted to ask here at VideoHelp which ones are good and will do the job properly

Thanks in advance

Bob (53 retired)
