"Cleaning" Vinyl Makes It Worse Not Better!


I"m using a spray 'advanced vinyl record cleaning solution' with a cleaning cloth.

It creates GUNK in the grooves which can be fixed by cleaning the needle 5-7 times during playing one side..  It gets into the grooves and fixes the problem.  I'd rather find a better way to clean the discs. Sounds dumb, I know. 

What am I doing wrong?

Please Help!!

Cleaning cloth? Ouch! That’s a no no.

If you want to clean and dry records automatically and for reasonable cost look at Humminguru ultrasonic cleaner.

If a more manual approach is Ok then Spin Clean.
