I believe that Spin Clean makes a good, manual wet system. You will need to dry the vinyl after cleaning. Also needed will be a anti-static brush and a stylus cleaner. I clean all albums before playing with a wet system and then use the brush for the next 5 or so play before using wet again. You should be able to get all this for under $ 200.00. Nitty Gritty makes a very good wet vacuum, manual system for higher $.
Vinyl Care
I just got a new turntable and cartridge after not having one for years.
I need a recommendation for a relatively inexpensive record cleaner.
I really never took proper care of my records,and would like some basic advice on how to keep them clean on a regular basis.
I also need some guidance on care and cleaning of my cartridge and stylus.My currant cartridge is a Rega exact.
Please know that I don't have a big collection of valuable records,just a bunch of old rock recordings amassed over the past 50 years.
I have started buying some new records,but only select prized albums that I have lost or have been worn out.
Thanks.
