Steam Cleaning - RCM or not? Dgarretson: What a misfortune. In years of steaming, nothing like that has happened to me (yet). One rule: I never steam closer than 3/4"ish and constantly move the steam unit all over the LP side for moments at a time. May your fortune change. Th... | |
The Best Amp for the Price of Dirt Just in case your interested, I mention the A-500's are operating as new, trouble free. They have risen in price and who knows if the quality is the same but mine continue to be "The Best (cheap mono) Amps for the price of dirt". Of course there a... | |
Steam cleaning records 2 Readers, I have been surprised to learn that the MC 1235 has not been as well received as traditional water boiler vs. instant steam makers . What I over-reached upon was the notion that to the novice steamer & others they would feel greater c... | |
New Maplenoll Ariadne owner needing advice Readers : I am re-assembling the Ari-Noll. The outboard motor will come later as will a different tonearm. I have reopened some cut-outs to accept the motor & electrical components. Sota commerical vibration/insulation strips surround the moto... | |
Steam Cleaning - RCM or not? Stltrains: Thanks for your support. Kind comments like yours really give me a boost.On reflection, I was frankly surprized to discover the difficulity some of us were having with the MC 1235. I believe a Steam user with years of experience the tra... | |
Steam Cleaning - RCM or not? Bogglor: Stltrains is describing the technique adapted for a "Perfection Handheld Steam Cleaner" available @ Walgreens but apparently according to posts the name has been changed to "Lifestyles" rather than "Perfection". It an excellent product al... | |
Steam Cleaning - RCM or not? Vanmeter, I have found that many LPs can be played shortly after cleaning. For reasons yet un-explained some LPs sound better with a rest. I have no scientific explanation but thats how it is ... Sometimes. | |
Steam Cleaning - RCM or not? Bogglor, I use the MC 1235 exactly as pictured on the box w/the straight nozzel. I have no dripping ... yet. If I were you, I would contact Top Innovations to request a replacement for your apparent defective unit. How I steam is as follows: I pre... | |
Steam Cleaning - RCM or not? Vanmeter : I haven't yet purchased Spray & Wash or the Pledge Wipes, I will buy both soon. It is my guess w/o actual experience these cleaners should be used extreme cases. That is an opinion reasoned by use of other detergent-types cleaners b... | |
Steam cleaning records 2 Readers, I can onlt relate my experience with the MC1235 has been nothing short of every quality I want for a handheld record steam unit. The continous water re-fill , meaning you can refill without unpluging or cooling, the variable steam control... | |
Steam cleaning records 2 Readers,I recommend the McCulloch MC 1235 handheld steam Cleaner as the "Steaming Machine of the Year". The 1235 is truly light-years ahead of all traditional water boilers. Its with 21th Century features, too many to outline here. I invite you to... | |
