How to demag. tape heads with bulk eraser


Greetings. I have a Teac X-300R reel to reel deck and need to demagnatize the heads. Can I use my Radio Shack bulk eraser to do this? How do I go about doing it? Thanks for all responses.

Thanks a lot for the super fast great answers. I called kingdom.com and and bought one for $40. I searched the archives here and didn't find anything on demagnetizers. I've played about 25 hours worth of tape since I bought the machine and have been noticing that it is getting more difficult to thread the tape. I'm guessing that a magnetic field is pulling on the tape and making it harder to handle. I have cleaned the heads and the moving parts several times. It's like maintaining an old car! I would also like to add that I am having a blast playing playing with reel to reel.
Much to my dismay I bought the one from kingdom.com before I saw sdcampbell's generous offer. My actually sent my previous post without seeing sdcampbell's. Sorry about that.
