Gradys, I agree with Dopogue, in fact my cleaning regimen is mostly the same as his, though I use camel hair brushes mostly. I probably use a little more fluid than I need to - I am currently experimenting with using less and am not noticing a significant difference.
Problems w/ Nitty Gritty RCM?
I was having a lot of trouble with surface noise on new vinyl. Before first playing my new LPs I was giving them a wash with my Nitty Gritty 1.5Fi, but I was still getting a lot of pops and clicks. In an attempt to discover the source of the problem, I stopped washing new records and just giving them a dry brush before first playing. This has reduced the surface noise quite a bit.
I'm wondering, is there something wrong with my Nitty Gritty, possibly something abrasive in the brush? Has anyone else experienced this?
