Premier Record Cleaner, How to use


I regularly haunt the thrift shops for LPs and I am too lazy to do my usual 4 part Walker cleaning on all of them. I would like to do a quick cleaning to see if they are worth the full treatment. Would cleaning with Microcare Contact cleaner or Premier work and how do you apply it? Thanks, Don

Premier, no. I don't know about the Microcare. Premier is used to get mold release agents off of new vinyl and does little or nothing for all of the other crud you find on used records. It should always be followed by a good lp cleaner and a rinse.

If you really want to cut down on the cleaners get yourself a cheapy steamer. Steam the LP, followed by a good cleaner, vacuum, apply a good rinse, then vacuum again. That is the process I follow. It is amazing how much difference steam cleaning makes.
Dan,
While I don't use Premier, I'm a bit confused about your statement. Seems to me if it removed the mold release, it would remove just about everything else. Can you explain?
It doesn't remove mold release. It breaks the bond with the lp so it can be cleaned off.
