Well said Dougdeacon, as a new user of RRL fluids I have to say my initial experiences are similar to yours. I have tried a home made solution before and of course the VPI solution that came with my record cleaning machine. The RRL has been the best to date.
Record Cleaning Fluids: RRL vs. L'Art du Son
Anyone compared these two or have any opinions. I'm leaning towards L'art du son because it appears to be much more cost effective ($45 will make you 4 quarts of record cleaning solution) but am not sure how much I should be worried about this vs. the RRL. Application/cleaning instructions appear to be very similar with both products. Anyone care to venture a guess as to how many records a 32 oz. bottle of RRL will clean?
