New! Improved! Faster Drying! This very popular Lasermedia RC-5 rubber pinch roller cleaner system is designed to be gentle, but still remove the excess crud from your pinch roller without removing the plasticizers that make your roller pliable unlike isopropol alcohol. Most "rubber cleaner/rejuvinators" will remove these plasticizers over time making your rubber roller rock hard, brittle, and maybe even lumpy. Some rubber renew type products even contain mineral oil which can damage your tape! Sure, they're OK on a rubber part not touching tape, but not OK on a deck pinch roller. The chemical formulation of the RC-5 cleaner has excellent resistance to breaking down rubber unlike almost every other roller cleaner out there and it does not contain any oils at all. Some are downright nasty to rubber.

The new Lasermedia RC-5 cleaning system uses a special chemical formula specially designed with consultation with a Cornell chemical engineer to gently clean the pinch roller as well as revitalize the rubber's surface to renew it's grip. Comes with 100 wood handled 6" cotton tipped applicators. Contains eight ounces in a metal can. Made and formulated in USA. By law this item WILL be shipped by UPS ground and cannot and will not be shipped to any foreign or APO addresses or by any other method. All orders inluding this item will be shipped via UPS ground. Do not order  with any recording media (tapes, cassettes, CDR, DVD, etc.)  Order this item separately with other non-recording media items.  We are not responsible for any leakage damage to recording media. 

Simple to use:
Wet a cotton tipped applicator with the Lasermedia RC-5 fluid Rub the surface of the roller with the applicator. This should take about a minute per roller. WIPE OFF any excess fluid when you're done cleaning with a dry applicator Let roller thoroughly dry for a few minutes before use Use only when your pinch roller is visibly dirty or you can feel dirt on the surface Non-carcinogenic Contains no isopropol alcohol, oils, or water. Good for many hundreds of cleanings!

"I love your pinch roller cleaner. I've been using it even on rollers in digital camcorders to rejuvinate the rubber and clean it. This is the best I've ever used after all these years and I mean a lot of years!"- GL NJ
