I have tried many of the other fluids and like the Art du Son a lot. The cost for Art du Son is quite reasonable. It is sold as a concentrate that the user mixes with water. Cost as I recall was $45 for a quantity that makes 1 gallon of cleaner. I also like Disc Doctor fluid but it requires a little more work.
When using VPI 16.5 - how do you
distribute the fluid - dribble it? And, how many times do you scrub (rotations)?
I'm new to this, but using the standard VPI fluid and brush my worst records sound better and my best records sound nearly perfect.
I'm mid-way through the bottle and am thinking of replenishing with Art du Son as it has gotten good press, but my dealer recommends Nitty Gritty fluid.
Any and all suggestions will be carefully read and appreciated.
