Record Cleaner


There are a lot of cleaners on the market these days. Is there a consenus out there on what record cleaner does the best job?

Record washing does not seem to be an exact science sometimes a mint record is full of ticks and noise even after several washings. While others play great after after 1 wash. I have tried Nitty Gritty, VPI and UHF all good products but none yield consistant results.

Is there one that seems to give consistent results time after time?

Just a quick question about enzyme cleaners - I have no hidden motives here as I have yet to clean a record in my life so I'm trying to find out what method is good and cost effective - but I thought I had read somewhere (maybe on Vinyl Asylum??) that some people seem to think that the enzyme cleaner can "eat" the vinyl. Is this just BS from someone with an agenda - you know, my method is the best and only record cleaning method to use - or is there some factual basis for this?
Thanks for clearing this up - guess I didn't read the "anti-enzyme" thread very well - even I know that enzymes aren't living things! Guess I was thinking of oil-eating bacteria or something. :-D
