VPI HW-17


I have recently re-entered the analog world, and have been using the VPI HW-17, together with a Discwasher brush and fluid, to clean my albums. This does a good job, but obviously I am not using the maching to its full potential. I am hesitant to fill the reservoir, because somehow I feel the fluid will become moldy and foul, especially in the waste reservoir. Am I being paranoid? Any recommendations on how to keep things clean?

The MFSL brush is awesome and I highly recommend using one for new albums and the other for older used albums.

When I had the HW17, the fluid would evaporate if not used for a long time. I use the 16.5 now and empty the tank after I see the clear tube backing up.
