Record-playing Rituals?


I'm curious what everybody's riuals are when listening to albums. How often do you clean the records? Every Time? How often do you clean and lubricate the stylus? Every time?

VIP 16.5 on new or used w distilled h2o, their cleaning detergent/wetting agent aliquot and 20% isopropyl. Then each time, the static gun from maple shade and a discwasher, then static gun and hunt eda brusg. Anti static gun gets pulled and released at least 2 x per lp revolution while either brush engaged. Then old audio technica sonic stylus brush slowly from back to front (my hands not steady since childhood so this is a long slow sweep, afraid to linger as I might damage cantilever). Then drop lever and run to chair.
