Degaussing/Demagnatizing

Hi!
I was wondering, I have a TASCAM 424 mkII (2nd hand) and it came with a cassette-tape like device for degaussing. In the manual they have a degaussing-thing what looks like a soldering gun. Is there a difference between them? If so, wich is better?

The tape-like thing is a no-name, you put it in the recorder and press play. A little red light on the tape will flash. I always do this for a couple of seconds, is that long enough?

Thanks already!

I used to use my 424, it collects dust now. I used the DG with the handle but only one or two times. I have never used the tape kind. So I can't compare the two. However you could look it up on one of the forums that deals with these issues. Google is a good search engine for this. You can type in different variation of tascam 424 forums
 
Try the analog forum. I've heard of casette head cleaners but not casette deguasers.
