Most powerful fluid for record cleaning machine ?

I'm just sharing my personal experience. There was a residue left behind with the AIVS that I can hear. RRL cuts it, but it takes several rinses. DD also left a film and required multiple rinses too, which is why I chose not to use it. I want to listen, not clean. Have you noticed the residue/sonic signature with DD?

I have purchased several new records that have lots of surface noise. The copy of Dire Staits Love over Gold had pops and clicks all through both sides of the LP. I used RR deep cleaner and rinse 2 or 3 times without getting satisfactory results. I came accross Paul's offer for free samples and knew exactly how to test it. After one treatment with the AIVS, I now have an outstanding copy. The pops and ticks are almost completly gone. The highs are better, and the record is one of my favs. If someone else does not get the correct results, Paul will help you fiqure it out.

I have to stongly recommend AIVS too. It spanked RRL, something I did not think would happen. I've had no problems at all with AIVS.

I like it!

I'm using the AIVS system with no distilled or ultra-pure water rinse.

After reading some posts on the Vinyl Asylum from individuals stating that they were getting "foaming" when doing a rinse after using the cleaner solution I got concerned. You certainly don't want any residue remaining on the record.

I've repeatedly tried a ultra-pure water rinse with a fresh brush following the cleaner step and not once have I gotten any foam or indication that there is any residue remaining on the vinyl. One thing I am doing is vacuuming a LOT - 6-8 revolutions on the VPI. I'm finding that if I only do 2-3 revolutions that there is still fluid remaining on the vinyl.
