CLEAN RECORDS WITH WHAT?????

a GALON of record cleaner?????????? What for???
Do you need to dip a record inside the bucket with record cleaning solution??

I own a vintage 8oz Memorex anti-static cleaner-conditioner which was sold as a kit along with Audio Exchange brush for a number of years. I acquired it from the record collector who was liquidating his vinyls and he gave it to me for free arround 3 years ago. He used it approximately for the same number of years if not more. Let me tell you -- the bottle doesn't seem to bring the level down so far(still have more than one half left).

Aren't there smaller bottles of Torumat?

If music direct sells their record cleaning solution in galons than whoever lives next to each other have to cooperate to buy one galon for at least 4 people.

Goliverjr,

The first time I used Torumat I bought a 16oz bottle. I suspect it's still available in that size. It's just cheaper to buy a gallon and keep refilling the smaller bottle. Of course, over the years I've cleaned maybe 3000 records and used several gallons. Someone with a more modest collection certainly would use much less.

Geez: I have gone through a couple gallons of a mix (similar to what Frank uses but sans Photo Flow) in the past two months cleaning 600 or so LP's. I clean them by hand (no machine) and do not reuse the fluid. I also clean the brush with electricians alcohal between each LP and then rinse it as well as the LP. I purchase used/mint vinyl that needs a good bath and am mainly afraid of mold being spread from one LP to another through the cleaning process. If I were using a high ticket solution I would of course use less. I also need a good/cheap source for quality liners.
