GrooveWasher Walnut Record Cleaning Kit

Product Information

I think if I'm spinning my records in the liquid, and the grime is falling to the bottom of the container, it's fairly low impact. You can avoid most residue problems by adding a secondary rinse stage to your cleaning process using distilled water (like that of Vinyl Revivals kit).

Low alcohol with technical surfactants to dissolve sticky gunk from the stylus, so the SC1 Brush can remove it. In my experience, the above, pragmatic approach is the best advice you can follow when cleaning used records.There are a million views on this subject I've never found overall agreement on cleaning methods other than a dedicated record cleaner that will loosen the dirt and suck it out is the only way to truly clean a record properly.

Being UK-based, I’ve tried plenty of the manual cleaning options available this side of the pond (namely, Clear Groove and Vinyl Revival), but until now, I’ve been unable to test any US equivalents directly. Derived from Tergitol, the concentrate can be diluted with distilled water to create a near-match to the original solution. A higher concentration of surfactants means a deeper clean while still protecting your precious classics. Keep your GrooveWasher kit next to your turntable to groom your records and needle--just before each play.Summary: Remarkable effectiveness, but too expensive and cumbersome to be used outside of rare occurrences. Soft, thick, two-ply highly absorbent "landing pad" to place vinyl records for cleaning off the turntable. Replaceable Microfiber Cleaning Pad, with velcro on the plexiglass base to secure the pad to the handle. At Sound Matters, we’ve covered plenty of vinyl cleaning methods before — particularly manual hand-cleaning methods, as many purpose-built record cleaning machines are cost-prohibitive for the average record collector.
