After I watched the vid you linked to, could not help but notice the other vids claiming you can clean records with WOOD GLUE! Is this the 21st century or what???
WOOD GLUE? The idea may have come from a product introduced back in the 70's that was similar to clear silicon caulking. You would smear the substance onto the entire grooved portion of an LP. After it set up you would simply peal it off, hopefully in one piece, and with it all the dirt and dust from the groves.

Unfortunately it never all came up with the peal.
Dhl93449,

Actually wood glue as an LP cleaner is not a crazy idea. I've tried it and also Elmers school glue a few times. These glues are safe (being a vinyl based glues) and applied evenly using a piece of stiff cardboard as a spreader. I attached pieces of paper in a few places around the edge of the LP as a way to once the glue was dry pry up the glue and peel off. Doing this makes removing the dried glue easy. The glue once removed leaves no residue. It can peel of quite cool as you will then see the positives of the grooves in the glue.

Anyways this is not a solution for all cleaning as it takes TOO LONG for the glue to dry and its rather expensive as you'd go through a lot of glue to do many LP's. But to try it on a few won't hurt and you may be happy with the results.
