It is a PITA. Kirmuss uses a lower frequency if I remember correctly so, it may not work well with just distilled water. You will have to play it by ear. I would never rub my records that way. It is too easy for abrasive contaminants to get into the mix and scratch things up. You could try various solutions followed by a rinse and your old machine. I have no idea which solution works best. If it were me I would try distilled water, 5% isopropanol and 5% surfactant. You can use the surfactant that came with the Kirmuss. This thinking comes from what I have read not my own experimentation as I very rarely clean records. Great person to get advise from. Now you are going to get posts on how poisonous isopropanol is to records:)
Can you use the Kirmuss Ultrasonic cleaner without the lengthy white paste steps
I am attracted to the Kirmuss Ultrasonic cleaner but not happy about the lengthy process ( white paste removal and habnd drying) after the cavitation cleaning. I was wondering if I could skip the latter and just use the cavitation cycle followed by a distilled water rinse and dry on my vacuum VPI. Any thoughts
