Halcro & Thommas: I agree with both of you that fluids are an option ,in some, (maybe all?) instances.
In the former Thread I expressed that in my experience, homemade fluid brews(read very cheap) seemed to work equally as well as the hi-priced spreads. That statement cost me ; I know Martina & others fluid designers strongly disagree as they have the right , but experiences as yours reflect other options .
The exception maybe dirty used recordings, a little home brew never hurt anything or for that matter hi-priced record cleaning solutions I presently have on hand. I agree and will apply them only as an option not a requirement.
Happy Hanna(Da' Storm) to all living on the East Coast , or in the East generally. May she leave before landing in your World.
