a record cleaning device and proper method

Hi,
right now all I have to clean my record collection that is coming out of long storage is the super record wash from Record Research labs a nice brush I bought from the distributor and I dry them with a clean cloth . This is not really right and I tried it this way to see if I could get a way with not having to buy a machine . I have a lot of really nice classical albums and I wont to clean them properly so a machine is ,I guess absolutely necessary ? If so which one, used ,should I buy ? and do I need an additional type of fluid to go along with the supper wash ? I know I need to vacum the fluid off .
I'm sorry if this question has come up many times before .

Thank you all !
Alex

Actually you're quite practical, not a tightwad.

Record cleaning fluids are 99% water and in no way, shape, or form is a $40/quart price justified. Unless of course you're into clocks, pebbles, and teleportation. Then it makes sense.

It is not rocket science although the vendors and even some posters here would have you believe so.

A RCM is quick and convenient but manual cleaning wins hands down all day long.
