cleaning vinyl. which cleaning fluid to use.

Record Research Lab Deep Cleaner and Super Vinyl Wash are what I use with excellent results as well as others above.

I haven't tried the RRL fluid, but I use Disc Doctor and find it to be far better than VPI's fluid (also I found VPI's very inconsistent, in fact the last bottle I had bought was, as far as I could tell, mostly water--terrible).

Think I'll try the RRL next but I've got a big ol' jug of Disc Doctor for now...

OKAY, now where can we get these fluids. I would try some. I did borrow a friends bottle of Vinyl Zyme from Bugtussel, and I thought that it worked pretty good.

Another vote for the RRL fluids, plus the aerosol Premier cleaner. These give pretty good results on our Loricraft. RRL is available from Galen Carol @ $20/bottle. www.gcaudio.com. Premier is available from Acoustic Sounds and most other audio etailers.

For obviously soiled records we also use the aerosol foaming cleaner sold by Smart Developments. Similar to most other isopropyl based solutions, but the foaming action cleans better than a straight liquid.

A Loricraft? You bastard! :-)

Let me ask you this. Do you then "finish" with the RRL Super Vinyl Wash after using the aerosols on the "soily" ones?
