I'm looking for

Where can I find new Pinch Roller
Where can I find new Rubber caps to press & hold the spool tapes securely
Some of the 7" spool tapes (particularly SCOTCH, AGFA, BASF) with vintage collection are making most unpleasant screeching / squeaking noise all the time while playing back immediately after cleaning the tape heads very very well. The oxide flakes also do not seem to fall off. There's no visible fungus. TDK tapes are okay. How can I clean these tapes before loading?

Thanks. email: pkbasak@gmail.com
