Vinyl & Cartridge Cleaners


Hi All,

I just purchased a project player started playing my old records again after decades. Please recommend products that truly work without breaking the bank. Are some of these products just plain alcohol or just wishful thinking. Product name and price would be greatly appreciated.

I built a rcm using a shop vac (29 dollars), old turntable from a deal i made on a record collection (10 dollars) and a strip of felt. I have experimented with several of the commercial cleaners except walkers (enzyme) and find a home made version works as well. lots of strings about diy homebrews or the commercial juice. both are pretty cheap in the long run. I do plan on trying the walker on a couple of records I really want to play but have too much gunk (stylus still picks up gunk after cleaning multiple times with a variety of cleaners)
A good brush and the vacuum are in my opinion, the best improvements in record cleaning. I have not used the walker brushes but can recommend the disk doctor brush. the microfibers do very good. Reminds me of my old discwasher i have used for 30 years. Good luck and keep spinning
