I have a Kirmuss. I also have an Audio Desk. The Kirmuss system is way too fussy, manually involved and time consuming. After some successes with it I ended up not using it for well over a year, mostly because I couldn't deal with the fuss and time.
Now I have changed my approach.I was about out of the Kirmuss fluid which is very expensive, and didn't want to follow that tedious procedure any more. I bought a vial of Tergikleen and now use that. I run used/dirty records through the Kirmuss with Tergikleen for 20 minutes (10 minutes and then flip the sides...not that flipping makes a difference). Then I run them through the Audio Desk. I use the Audio Intelligent Vinyl Solutions ultrasonic formula for that.
I've been getting much better results than I ever did with the official Kirmuss process, and the cost of consumables is vastly diminished too.
