CAIG Rubber Cleaner a replacement for TASCAM Rubber Cleaner?
In article writes:
But looking around online, I saw CAIG Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner, CaiKleen RBR.
Anyone have any experience using this on pinch rollers--is it a suitable
replacement for the TASCAM cleaner?
No, but Athan sells a rubber cleaner (JRF sells the same stuff) and
those guys know their recorders. If they say it works well and it's
safe, you can depend on it.
On the other hand, I find that water works pretty well and absolutely
won't harm the rubber, and a water-based cleaner like Windex is a
little more potent and no more dangerous.
Google turned up a couple of stray hits, but I'm looking for a more direct
confirmation like "oh yeah, sure, I use the CaiKleen RBR on pinch rollers all
the time--no prob". Trying to make double sure . . .
I doubt that it's been around long enough for anyone to have had
experience with it accelerating the demise of a pinch roller. About
all anyone can tell you now is that it gets them clean, and there's
lots of stuff that will do that, given enough elbow grease.
