LP Cleaning


Hi Guys
Need some advice on cleaning. 
I have a Clearaudio Smart Matrix cleaner. I am using Distilled Water with Spin Clean solution mixed roughly two caps (Large Bottle) to a litre. My TT is a Clearaudio Performence with a Dynavector Karat D17 and the Clearaudio Virtuso V2 both running through an Avid Pellar Phono. 
New records play fine no static or dust noise. Older records play with what seems like a lot of dust noise no matter how well I try and clean. The result is the same with both the Cartridges as well as switching to a combo of a Project TT, Project Phono and Ortofon Cartridge. 
I realise it must be my cleaning efforts. I have seen various videos on line and have tried to do exactly the same. I have also tried to clean with the Clearaudio solution that came with the machine. Can some one please advice how to get rid of the dust or better clean. Should I increase the amount of the Spinclean solution?
Thanks

astro58go...back off dude!  Bill's a good guy and has given excellent advice here.  So he didn't read the post quite right, so what?

Whart just to clarify I have the Clear Audio Smart Matrix machine and just use the Spin Clean Fluid. I do not have the spin clean it self. I have not tried to blow the dust of the record before cleaning. 
Absolutely right on best practices. Here is what I am gonna try and do right now and see if it works. 
1. Blow dust off using a Gitto. 
2. Brush dust off using a Carbon Fiber Brush. 
3. Clean on the Clearaudio Matrix and vaccine. 
4. Use the Milty Zero Stat. 
Please feel free to add anything I may have missed. 
Thanks everybody for your excellent response and advice. 
mofi..I'm sure whart is a great guy.

"So he didn't read the post quite right, so what?"

Well, isn't THAT exactly WHAT we are suppose to do in order to draw upon our experience so we can give the BEST advice to anyone???

SO WHAT??? Damn right, SO WHAT!  That's what this forum is all about!

Am I missing something?


I think I'm in the "wrong place" for direct, honest talk."

Please accept my apologies for any correct statement I've made.

astro58go...so you’ve never made a mistake in your life? Gee, what it must be like to be you!

Direct honest talk is fine, but you don’t need to attack someone.

We have a very nice little community here, that you have only been a part of for less than 2 months, maybe you should run along and find some of your own kind?
