I used a formula I found on www.enjoythemusic.com Dump out part of a gallon of distilled water. Add a bottle of isopropyl alcohol. Try to find the highest concentration. Some is 50%-75%-90% but I found some 98% at a Rite Aid drug store. 10 drops of Kodak Photoflow. ~$5 and you will have enough to last forever. 2-3 drops of tile cleaner (a specific brand but I forgot which) If you are interested,I'd go to the website to double check the formula.I may be off a bit in the drops dept. |
Here's what Harry Weisfeld, the head of VPI, recommended on Audio Asylum some time ago. Take a gallon jar, put in 16 oz. of isopropyl alcohol (NOT rubbing alcohol), then fill it with distilled water and add 3-4 drops of Dawn dishwashing liquid as a surfactant. Note that VPI sells its own record cleaning fluid, but Weisfeld apparently preferred his home-brew version. I personally like Audio Intelligent Vinyl Solutions (AIVS) a lot, but it's more expensive and there's nothing wrong with the Weisfeld formula. Good luck, Dave |
