How much isopropanol is effective but safe for viny?

@invictus005,

Do you have years of research on, or really (any) research on how isopropyl alcohol affects a vinyl record from becoming brittle over time? Huh? Cummon’?

Seemingly, you’ve left a vinyl record in a vat of isopropyl alchohol for 10 years. How else could you make that claim? Even more.. it’s not how it will look after a ten year bath, it’s how it will hold up 50 years down the road.

Put up and shut up! Your type of ignorant comments affect me since I do spend time trying to perfect my cleaning methods, and overtime have done so with remarking here. What about you?

No, now we have some clarity.

@bpoletti

So you are saying it removes plasticizers that need to remain on records is the best thing?

I think you need to re-word your post my friend.

I do not use as I read, that overtime it can cause vinyl to become brittle. That’s reason enough for me to stay away....far away.

Here is THE question... Why do people want to use isopropyl alcohol? What factor does isopropyl alcohol have that would lend itself a great cleaning agent on vinyl records? Have the Isopropyl alcohol proponents tried/used other methods? If yes, let's hear of them and their/both long term affects.

@bpoletti

Sorry but your post makes no sense to me.

Happy Listening!
