Record Cleaning Machines

@antinn, Thanx for your service!! I down loaded your book and will get started with it tonight. This took a lot of time and effort on your part for little if any financial gain, again thank you very much. To my knowledge there is no other comprehensive review of the subject by someone with technical expertise in this area. 

I'll get back with questions after I finish.  

@antinn, am I wrong? It would seem to me that someone has got his cations and anions mixed up with polar and nonpolar. 

@daveyf,  I think it is both physical damage to the record and build up of "residue."  People who don't not take great care of their records are more likely to leave them out and smoke various combustibles that leave an oily residue on everything present not to mention any cooking fumes that may be present. Nothing is going to correct physical damage and getting rid of that oily residue is a PITA. My own mentality will not let me buy used records for the above reasons. 
Contrary to popular mythology new records are not bad at all. They may have some dust and come out of the jacket with static but that is all that I notice.  I do not have to routinely clean gunk off my stylus, occasionally just some lint that got by my sweep arm. I may go months without touching the stylus. I have never cleaned new records but I will use a spin clean with DW and a few drops of Triton X100 for records that people bring to listen on my system. I have always thought the best way to clean records is not to let them get dirty in the first place. The additives in the PVC/PVA compound are part of the matrix of the material. It is not on the surface. It is mixed throughout. I thought you might be able to remove some plasticizer from the surface to harden it (ESO) but antinn assures me this can't happen. My instinct tells me that pressings people thought were "dirty" are just bad pressings with remnants of dirt and labels from recycled vinyl.  

@antinn, I would use a higher concentration in the Degritter followed by a rinse. I would use IPA in the rinse to speed up drying. 

What is the CMC for the Tergitol?

@antinn as above!
