Decided to clean my records (first time in 35 years) today, maybe 300 or so.
I bought two of these kits for 50€ a few years ago:
And today a Record Doctor VI vacuum for 270€:
I'm thinking i use the first one for a good pre-wash, then the second for a rinse-wash and the vacuum to finish. The stands allow me to dry the records properly. It seems i can do at least 16 in one go, maybe more, not sure how many i can get into the stand. I should have plenty of cleaning fluids for now, but obviously i would make my own once i run out.
I also ordered new inner sleeves.
This demonstration pushed me over the edge:
I'll tell you how it goes.
So electrostatic attraction of dust is a problem after cleaning, is there any chemical that can be used to reduce that effect, or is it just what it is?
