Is pharmacy distilled a higher standard than Walmart distilled?
Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning
My Cleaner Vinyl ultrasonic record cleaner arrived today and it’s impressive.
Everything I’d read indicated that ultrasonic was the way to go, and now I count myself among the believers. Everything is better - records are quieter, less ticks and pops, more detail etc.
All my records had been previously cleaned with a vacuum record cleaner and were well cared for. Nonetheless, the difference is obvious and overwhelmingly positive.

You may find this explanation of different purification processes helpful: [url]http://www.emdmillipore.com/US/en/water-purification/learning-centers/tutorial/purification-techniqu...[/url] The source is a manufacturer of equipment used in labs and hospitals. In my interview with the LOC, the preservation specialist suggested the D/I was sufficient for records, the main objective being to remove mineral content. I've been told you can buy reagent grade II at places like Cosco. The reagent grade 1 cannot be shipped to a residence. It's also more costly. I now only use it to mix fluids and for rinse steps on the Monks. I used standard supermarket distilled in the US machine. |
