No substitute for ultrasonic. Cheap Chinese ones work well. Much better than scrub/vac previously used.
I got 127 records from the mid 40, 50 and early 60s that need a lot of cleaning
I got all these records, from a friend's grand father and father, they are "impeccable" some of then not even open, but they were in a cave under their house with their wines.
I looked at them under the USB microscope and some have a lot of what I think is mold(?) or some other humidity spores.
How do I go about cleaning them?
I was thinking some mild detergent and warm water, but then what do I use for cleaning them? I was thinkin on buying one of those cheap ultrasonic machines, but the liquid cleaner I have does not remove whatever is stuck on the records.
What would you recommend for the cleaning liquid and/or steps.
After they are clean, I will get them through the Clear Audio, or Autodesk as a last step.
