Cleaning Vinyl


I have recently gotten back into vinyl. Questions regarding what type of cleaning and treatments for my abums would you suggest. I used to use the discwasher system and zerostat gun, have never tried the record cleaning machines... any suggestions? How about any type of album treatment solutions... gruv glide, etc. HELP!!!

Think that 50% alcohol might be too much.Empty gallon of distilled watter into container pour in one pint of alchohol 2-3 drops of clear dish liquid and photoflow.Works great.I use Last Power Cleaner on really gummed up LP's or if there not I just use an Alsop Orbitrac beofre I run it through my VPI 16.5.Thereafter unles it really has collected with dust from sitting out for a few days I use a brand new Allsop pad or one that has only cleaned LP's that have been thuroughly cleaned on machine.Last Preservative is worth it's weight in gold (Mike at VPI say's folks bring him Lp at shows treated with it that have used LAST and they sound like they have been played half a doz times not hundreds like they have.There are some disagreements about if one should clean after LAST treatment with just plain water after all the other steps are done.
