Cleaning records. How often really?

"I suppose you never clean your shoes either or maybe once"

I don't wear shoes. I clean my altar...

What a cute breed some of you are.

Thanks Dawg ....
My wife stopped calling me cute a few years ago. I think when I decided I didn't want to work for a boss anymore.
You know I kind of miss it. I will take what I can get.

I suppose, you never clean your shoes either or maybe once.

Since you are asking.....

My black shoes hang in the closet. They only get a little dusty. I use a carbon fiber brush on them,
If I want them to be really shiny, I put some peanut butter on them and call over Koaltar
my running buddy

These days my main shoes look like this.

They are good for 500 miles. So they get changed out every couple months.
There is no need for cleaning. They become walking shoes when their time is up.

........ I use Okki Nokki machine and Audio Intelligent three step cleaning solutons.

If anyone has a friend looking to get into vinyl. Show him the picture on that website. If he still decides to get involved, he deserves everything that's coming to him.

Inna - I don' think that brush can remove everything. Imagine, as an example, that while playing records you sometimes smoke or cook. You'll get some of that stuff on your records.

A friend got me a brush available through ebay in Japan that works on two AA's. Its great at removing lint. You hold it on the record as it spins. It works like a vacuum cleaner. This is for records that have already been cleaned properly and are stored in a proper sleeve. For Daily use.

Cooking dramatically changes humidity levels. If you want to stop paying someone else to mix fluids for you I can tell you how to make a solution that can be tailored to the humidity in the room. My email is on my system page link.

Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends

My wife doesn't cook at all, and won't let me near the kitchen for any cooking either. (ocd) We live in the desert..no damned humidity either.

My tonearm loves desert air. It keeps telling me to move out there with it. :) My knees would probably agree.

Ct0517 - All that desert air would be great for a turntable if it wasn't for all that static electricity from that dry air. Your tonearm and knees may love that desert air, but....
