When I vacuum off my final rinse it is for no more than 2 rotations, then I air dry the LP for 1/2 hour prior to putting it back into a sleeve. I have found static to start to be an issue at 3 or more rotations. I use an Okki Nokki RCM. I will only use Gruv Gum on a rather noisy suface noise wise record. New or Near Mint LP's I have found to be dead quiet with a proper RCM clean cycle w/o Gruv Glide. I try to avoid coatings on my LP's.
Loricraft PRC, multiple-step cleaning and static
Hi everyone,
I've recently bought a PRC4 to upgrade from my previous PHK RCM (typical vacuum-based design).
I decided to use the same 3-step process I was using before, only using the L'Art du Son fluid. I'm using MoFi Enzyme cleaner, L'Art and MoFi Pure Rinse.
I'm getting tons of static on the Loricraft. Major cracking sounds when removing the record from the platter on it. Records don't sound clean because of this, and the felt mat on my TT is getting stuck to them, a problem I never had before. They were always pretty much static-free with my previous RCM, and I was expecting the Loricraft to do even better in that regard, based on all the positive feedback it gets.
What could I be doing wrong?
Thanks!
