Ryan,I've sent you a private email about record cleaning since I didn't want to start any more controvery in this thread. Cleaning of vinyl is a pretty divisive topic in these threads. I urge you to try several products, label what you used on the...

Elartford,You may have lived through that period but didn't achieve success and admittedly never cleaned a record. Anyone blessed with a sense of reason will make a conclusion that instead of properly caring for you records and making informed cho...

How Should We Clean A New Record?
Letch,Check in your phone book's yellow pages under Laboratories-testing. Find a lab that is a Certified Laboratory Service. They make their own lab grade water. This water has less than 0.1 ppm total disolved solids and is ideal for a final rinse... 
does anybody still listen
I have a fair amount of friends that come over and they always want to hear something that is a recent purchase. After that I have them pull whatever suits their fancy and that inevitably leads to a trip down memory lane. I thoroughly enjoy having...

Newmanoc,Yeah, I sweat bullets every time I buy a used piece of vinyl too. Generally I've been quite happy with my purchases. The seller in this case has done a huge volume of business with great customer satisfaction and a 100% return policy if n...
