"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!!

Your small magnifying mirror with LED lighting is exactly what I want but so far have not managed to find in Australia.

Can I ask where you got yours, please!

Thanks for the info on where to buy the mirror.  I have two slightly different ones on order from Temu, and Amazon will be my backup plan.  i have had varying experiences with Amazon.  Say no more!
