Finding ultra-pure water locally...

I've been reading up on record cleaning, and there seems to be something of a consensus that rinsing with ultra pure water / lab-grade water / triple distilled water (I'm assuming these are just different names for essentially the same thing?) helps. Where does one buy such water locally? I would imagine paying postage to ship 10 lbs of water would be rather high. I'm in the San Francisco Bay Area. Tks!

Pawlowski,

I am afraid not. I live in Ann Arbor.

Cheers,

Ivan

I just spoke to Microscopes.com, they confirmed that the web site offer of a four gallon case of Reagent grade type 1 water (the best lab grade) is $105.95.

Free shipping during this sale, meaning it's delivered to your door for $26.48 per gallon.

I have enough coming to share with friends and at that price it's worth knowing the end results are the best it can be for all the labor and time it takes to clean an LP correctly.

Another great reason not to own vinyl. I just spit on my CDs and wipe them on my T-shirt. -:)
