It may work, but why use a dry method that is likely to leave little bits of
eraser in the unit when you can use a chamois or other cleaning products
that will hold alcohol and leave no residue. Why take the risk?

As for alcohol not being an effective cleaner, I have to differ. It is a
lot better than water or dry methods. What do you use to clean the ridges
of oxide off of the capstan? I have cleaned many hundreds of VCRs, also
since the earliest days of the product, and have found denatured alcohol or
isopropanol to be very effective.
