At the TV station we used alcohol. But the field crews used a cleaning tape which worked well. You are only supposed to play a cleaning tape about 10 seconds or so. If that doesn't fix it, you've got other problems.
I remember a CE I worked for once, looking at the alcohol bottle in the tape room, saying, "I think somebody is drinking this stuff," as we used quite a bit of it.
A related thought, in these colder climates the molecules in the air in tires slip past the wheel beads. To minimize this problem, the tire shops recommend using Hydrogen.
It seems, that's the reason soft drinks go flat in plastic bottles after a while.
