Homemade Record Cleaning Fluids??

pure water is the way to go. You must have a cleaning agent. A sniff of most commercial cleaners reveal an alcohol base. Alcohol also drys quickly. I have enver had any problems. What is Record Doctor? What is the cleaning agent?

Gregadd I do not know the cleaning agent that Disc Doctor uses. I had a memory lapse when I typed 'Record'. But it is not alcohol. I know because it is also used for pre-LPs like Edison disc and shellac, which disolve in alcohol. This is the best stuff I have ever tested unless you have mildew problems and need a protien enzyme like Bugtussel makes. The curator of vinyl uses disc doctor.

disc doctor. isn't that a commercial product? I thought we were talking about homemade?
