Another Product Dies with Audio Cassette

Cassette have died a long time ago. Probably in the 90s. It's a bad format. Cassette head that reads the cassette always need cleaning. And we always use Swan Alcohol to clean it. There might be other brand but this ubiquitous cassette head cleaner is always sold it every cassette shop.

Aside from using it to clean cassette head, this alcohol solution can also be used to remove sticky plastic. Very useful for Transformers toys that have gone sticky and other plastic items like phones and case.

So while the death of cassette have been long, the swan alcohol still sold for years until last year when I tried to find it in Penang, it was no where to be found. Not even Kulim. My Amazon HDX case is sticky and I need this alcohol to remove the sticky portion.

After searching high and low, I managed to find it in Mahkota Parada in Malacca. There's a shop that still sell cassette tape and I am shocked they still have loads of Swan Alcohol. Thanks to them, I can now clean my sticky plastic. Bought 2 bottle at RM6 per bottle.

Awesome! This show that Malacca is great place to get old items. LOL.
