Steam cleaning records 2

Walgreens still carries the "Living Solutions" steamer. Same as the "Perfection" except green instead of red - inexpensive and effective.

I'm new to audiogon and have relatively recently started steam cleaning LPs that look like they should play better then they do after using my Nitty Grittty.
I have noticed that after steaming when I play the record the needle seems to gradually pick up a tiny fur ball of a light white appearing material-which comes off easily but as it gathers it affects-poorly-distortion-of the sound. After removing the fur ball and playing over the area again I can usually get to enjoy the record as it is as clean as it will be.
What is this fur ball?
Weirdly if I steam the record again another fur ball will form-usually a somewhat smaller one. I've done this 4 times on one LP and gotten 4 fur balls.
And this happens on multiple records usually relatively clean ones.
Any ideas?

Are you using paper towels to dry the label? If so, it is lint.

the other possibility is using tap water in your steamer. It can through salts on the record. Been there done that. The best water is ro or double distilled. Less solids and less contamination
