RRL Cleaner, Vinyl Zyme, and Groove Glide

Ok,

I was the guy who was unhappy with my vacumn cleaned records a few weeks ago and I think I found the answer.

After cleaning with super wash and regular wash, then vinyl zyme, then regular wash, then groove glide,(I know it is time consuming!), I got to tell all of you guys that my records are Dead Quiet and Detail has improved alot. The soundstage perspective is a little more like sitting in row 35 versus row 20, but the smoother detailed sound and presentation is nice.

Just thought I would let others know that I tried these products in case others of you are interested. Definitely worth the money spent.

In my opinion it is the GruvGlide that is sucking the life out of your records. It certainly quiets the surface but at a heavy cost. It's putting a barrier between the stylus and vinyl interface. Not a good thing. ANYTHING, that leaves gunk to be picked up by the stylus is bad. I tried this stuff 25 years ago and promptly tossed it. Try your regimen without it and, in my opinion, you will be happier with the results. I also found it took repeated cleanings to totally remove the stuff.

Good luck,

Wendell
