GEM Dandy Record Cleaner - Has Anyone Tried It ?

The GEM does appear to be a nice addition to steam cleaning records , a home brew all the better. One issue with the GEM , that is the use of tap water. As countless posts on several threads have noted the cleaner the water product the more responsive the sound. Tap may be good for you and me but for records ???

Heyitsmedusty: Now that's an idea...

Kbamhi: Looking forward to the education ...

Kbamhi: It appears you have all the essentials for a hand operated dryer. Have you given any thought to lightly spining the Lp on the "Gem" while holding a powerful, blowing hair dryer 12" or more away, on air dry or low, to speed up the drying time? I believe distance, lo or no heat and hi-fan will do the trick. The disc should be dry in moments. All the best.

Kbamhi: I'm making my thru several hundred 1960's Decca's that were given to me recently. I'll put Mr.Lang on my do list. He's one great blues guitar player.
