"Cleaning" Vinyl Makes It Worse Not Better!

So happy I like CDs. Next up probably streaming. Simplicity.

I use KLaudio 200 ultrasonic with distilled filtered water and no additives with very good results.   Every time i play vinyl a use Furotech III static removing device

I don't like the concept of adding anything to the surface of a record: Solvents always a risk. Soaps, additives, surfactants etc all accumulate and removing anything is rarely possible once applied

Anyone try the Mobile Fidelity Ultra Record Wash, 1oz bottle, for ultrasonic machines?

Woo all this process for a record.Not my tune, I switched to CDs to avoid all this, now I breath on the disc wipe it on my shirt, put it on the tray, push play and chill.

First if after you "clean" a record it keeps leaving deposits on the needle, you did not clean said record. You just released some dirt. You might not be using enough fluid, letting it soak in enough, or removing enough of it after the final wipe. 

For me, do a manual clean with Grovemaster products, then it goes in the ultrasonic. After that it goes into a new premium sleeve. Use 6 drops of Grovemaster ultrasonic cleaner per gallon of distilled water. Some used records need to go through the process a couple of times. 

Most of my records have 0 pop, hiss, clicks, very low noise floor. If they do, they get cleaned again. My needle almost never needs to be cleaned. I got a nice little ultrasonic cleaner for that.
