record cleaning methods......................

I bought the plastic circle which screws around the label to protect it with rubber gaskets

then I use joy dish soap, or a dab of Palmolive rub it in real good, get sudsy, then rinse in sink til all soap gone, pat dry with cotton towel, then a air duster to blow off any extra water, then I hold the lp and swish in the air a few times, then I air duster it again, then I drop a needle on it and enjoy the clean non noisy sound

Okki Nokki for $500 with Audio Intelligent three step cleaning solutions, choose Archive as the second step, with three Disc Doctor brushes is very decent. High resolution and virtually no noise if the vinyl is good. But you should take your time and spare no effort. If you follow the instructions, both Okki Nokki and Audio Intelligent, you will get about 90% but not 100%. The trick is to soak with both Step one and Step two solutions ANY record not just dirty ones, and not for two-five minutes but longer, at least with Step one. And a few other details, including double or triple rinse with Step three - pure water. Yes, it takes at least 30 minutes including waiting while it is soaking to do one record. You can do it in 15 minutes but it won't be that clean.

Spray solution of soap drops in water.Spray the album then it not very dirty just use you Disc cleaner brush.No problem been doing it this way since 1974...

Variation on a theme - been using the KAB unit attached to a Eureka Mighty Mac Vac after cleaning and then rinse in separate spin cleans and a gentle use of a painting pad (after the initial cleaning and before the rinse) from home depot (I got this tip from Michael Fermer who has used one in a YouTube video on record cleaning)

The best record cleaning method is to research record cleaning methods until the heat death of the universe. This thread is only 5 years old, nowhere near long enough to even begin to think about actually cleaning a record.
