Deep Cleaning Records With Steam?

It has happened again. Major tweak and record provider has available a steam cleaner made especially for records. Anybody try steam for cleaning lp’s? What were your results? Since a unit can be had for about $20 at Target, 15% of what the tweak provider is charging, is it worth a try?.

After having purchased and used the "Perfection" steam cleaner, (I also use the downward pointng nozzle), I am firmly on the steam powered wagon! I now no longer feel compelled to buy an RCM, the grooves are coming out cleaner than any other cleaning method I have used.
Charlie, you deserve a hardy pat on the back, you have saved my bacon!

Thanks much,
Dan

Hi all, I have been happily steaming away for for a couple of months now, and I have found other uses for steaming. You know how the Onzow Zerodust gets full of dust after awhile, and needs to be cleaned? I remove the gel bubble from the box, place it on the upside down box, and steam it clean. It comes out looking like new, and seems to return it to the very sticky condition as when new. Highly recommended! Also, works well on record cleaning brushes.
Enjoy,

Dan
