How to clean a Portastudio case & knobs | Remove dirt, stickers, tape & paint

Описание: Often when I'm doing up neglected four tracks and other tape recorders, the plastic case and knobs are utterly filthy, with dust grease stickers, tape paint spills, drink spills you name it.

Here is my method for dealing with this, demonstrated on a particuklarly filthy Tascam Portastudio 488 cassette recorder.

The same techniques will apply for other brands of 4 track and 8 track e.g. Yamaha, Fostex etc.
