Acetone is a good cleaner.  When I worked for a VCR Repair shop, it's what
we used to clean the heads and belts.  But be careful when using it around
plastic.  I accidentally spilled some on the front cover of a VCR while in
the shop and it chewed it up pretty bad.  Also don't use a styrofoam cup to
put the acetone in.
