Do you clean your records before play, after play, or once (and then never again)?


All my records have been cleaned at least once, but after play, I'll drop it in my Klaudio ultrasonic cleaner for a quick re-clean. I figure if my stylus is digging / loosening anything in the grooves, it's a good opportunity to get that junk out of there. How about you?

I first used L'Art du Son on my Keith Monks. Then I used Walker 4 Steps enzymes and the Keith Monks fluid for re-clean from time to time. After that I tried AIVS and liked it better than Walker especially for a less "dry midrange".
now I have bought a KLAudio but kept the KM (because I 😍 this machine). 
Now all my record collection is washed first with enzymes and second with ultrasonic.
Recently I bought again a bottle of L'Art du Son for periodic re clean and find it is best sounding when I make a final clean with it. It is not expensive and if you let the fluid for 2 minutes on the record it cleans really well. And more than that it makes music sound really good to my ears.
