Hand drying records using a VPI 16.5 or the like.

Does anyone use a VPI, Nitty Gritty..., but not Vacuum. If so, what type of cloth, and drying process do you use. I have a 16.5, but it's right below the bedroom. There have been many times where I could have used my insomnia time to clean records. However, the 16.5 is ridiculously loud, and would wake the humans. Happy New Year, and long live vinyl!!!

I buy packages of microfiber polishing cloths from autoparts stores for drying/cleaning records. Inexpensive, very functional, and don't leave a trace of lint.

Thanks- The Spin Clean cloths are also available at Acoustic Sounds. I picked up a Microfiber Cleaning cloth at Walmart, but have yet to try it. I believe it's the same brand as one of their mops and brooms. I may give it a try on one of my not so prized records, though I bet it will be fine. Wow- never thought of a Viva Paper towel, I have to start thinkin outside of the box. Cheers -Don
