What is the best method for cleaning the heads of my tascam 424 MKII
 
Buy some 99% isopropyl alcohol (not rubbing alcohol) and some Q-Tips.
 
Clean everything on the tape path (except the rubber rollers should have rubber cleaner), wet one, dry ones, repeat...
And good light. Watch for stray fuzz.
:D
 
I like those flat yellow head cleaner sticks....

,,,from Radio Shack.

They're like a soft terry cloth kinda things, like that material you clean and dry cars with.

You don't have to worry about leaving any fuzzys like with q-tips.

...but Q-tips work well too.
