I would NEVER use a regular vacuum machine for sucking cleaner. I wash the record with the Groovmaster label protector in place and then rinse it. The vacuum machine is for extracting clean water. Try Audio Intelligent cleaning solutions and you'll never regret it. The enzymatic cleaner is very powerful and the 'soap' is a monomolecular agent.
Best cheap record cleaning system?
I challenge all goners (I'm so proud of myself) I am using a spin wash (59.00) which actually bathes your records and runs them through brushes and then an audio advisor nitty gritty special (299.00) You have to spin it but it sucks all the moisture off the record. I am new to vinyl and am buying some of the nastiest used records you can imagine. They have all come out great after the treatment (except scratches of course). All the schmutz falls to the bottom and is isolated. I tested 750 dollar units locally and nothing comes close to actually immersing your records in this stuff and vacuuming it off. Spritsing something on doesn't work. Independently, neither really worked right. That's 359.00 total. Any other ideas?
