A CHEAP AND VERY EFFECTIVE RECORD CLEANING SOLUTION.


Over the years I’ve tried most of the record cleaning products out there, including the expensive stuff. Here’s what I’ve been using for many years now. It is totally biodegradable and will do no damage to your valuable LPs, and will get them sparkling clean.

Use one capful to a gallon of distilled bottled water. Use no more than the suggested capful. More is not better in this case. This will cost only pennies per gallon.

Sink w luke warm water,and small squirt of “Ivory mild dish soap” LP label has the label protector, screw it on the label, water tight. I use 2 brushes, one is the rectangle corner painters brush with fine bristles. Other is just a step up more coarse, round no round we go, back and,forth, get a good sudz going, then turn on tap water where there is,no,airation in the water, rinse, rinse again,then again, put on a clean cotton dish towel, press and gently wipe them, then to basement where I stuck felt pads to the underside of the shop-vac attachment, slowly go round n round with the attachment, sucking everything out.

Takes time,but, I enjoy doing it. All mine minus a handful have been cleaned like this, placed in Discwasher or the other brand withmamV? I think?
