Use VPI Record cleaning brush ? How much liquid ?


Hello,

Does anybody use the stock VPI record cleaning brush that comes with the cleaning machine ? I never have, and have always used the MFSL/Music Direct brushes with the microfiber type pad. I think Disc Doctor makes something similar.

The VPI brush looks kind of rough, though I doubt they would provide it if it was dangerous to use on vinyl. Just curious of others experience with it vs. others. I currently use it to clean off the platter on the cleaning machine.

Also, and I suppose this is hard to describe, but "how" wet do you get the record with solution ? How much solution do you use ?

Rushton,
I have the 16.5, and obviously manually add solution. The few times I did use the VPI brush, it does seem you have to wet the record much more vs. the Music Direct type which only seem to get the record so wet, and the brush holds a lot of solution. I often wondered if I could be using to LITTLE solution ?
