Abstract
A magnetic storage system according to one embodiment includes a magnetic head having a removable organic coating thereon in an amount sufficient for reducing exposure of the head to oxidation promoting materials. The system also includes an applicator in a drive in which the magnetic head resides, the applicator being configured to apply the organic coating directly to the magnetic head without contacting the magnetic head. At least one guide is configured to create a spacing between the magnetic head and the guide, wherein the spacing is sufficient to insert the applicator into the spacing.
