Steam cleaning records 2

Thanks Mike, I experiment all the time, but such things cost money. And since you and others already have your steamers, I thought somebody could try it and see if warm misting would have the same affect. With an RCM, people close to me already had one, I watched, then listened, then bought. I'm not going to invest in something I'm not sure about, at least not at this time.

When I run out of my ultra pure water, I might take a B list lp and try the aqanuanafineanuna or whatever some call it and see on one side of the lp if it's the same as the other with the ultra pure. That type of experiment I'll gladly do and report back in.

Has anyone tried using a tea kettle that has a steam spout? or is real steam too hot? if it'd work at least it be cheap and easy to try.

Thanks for the input. Get experimenting...

Has anyone compared steam cleaning to the Walker four step Prelude system?

I used to steam clean but got tired of having to dry off labels and have been using the Walker method for a while - but wondering what produces better results (costs aside).

When I steam cleaned, I started at the edge and moved in towards the center but the spray of the steamer would splash upon hitting the LP... I don't see how you couldn't help but get the label wet.

In any case, thanks for the response.
