Cleaning solution

Hi, Itsalldark, you've got a great machine. Once I finally spent the money on it I've loved it ever since. I started out with basic vpi fluid, then to record research, then the MoFi, and now I've finally stumbled across the best of the lot, the Audio Intelligent Vinyl Solutions. I'm using their two step process, the #15 cleaner, and the ultra pure water rinse. The cleaner can be left on for up to 20 min if you have a really dirty record, it does such a great job of lifting out the debris. I also recommend the Disc Doctor's felt pads for applying, you must use a seperate one for each step.
The most remarkable improvement over the other cleaners is how the music comes out of complete blackness, rarely any surface noise. It's quite an amazing thing to hear after all these years.
Above all, just use your cleaner! Your records and cartridge will thank you.

Oops, I botched it. When I stated cleaner/s I meant the cleaning fluids, not the vpi cleaner itself. I also had some old cleaning fluid from Audio Advisor, and I see the Mofi is made for them by record research labs. Hm.
One thing I would say is to use a rinse/wash afterwards. In the old days I just put on whoever's cleaning fluid and never rinsed. Makes a huge difference. I think that's really all the steaming people are doing, just giving the lps a good misting rinse, but, let's not get into that.

NOOOO! Anything but that.....that's like releasing the Cracken....
