Small quantities of alcohol are used to reduce the surface tension of the aqueous mixture and aid in wetting of the surface. If the wetting is poor, so will be the cleaning, no matter what surfactants are used.
Please also recall the PVC and record vinyl has plasticizers to keep the plastic flexible. High concentrations of some alcohols and solvents can remove these compounds and create a brittle surface. A brittle surface is subject to spalling, cracking, and degradation.
