Vinyl record cleaning


I watched a video of someone cleaning records in a dishwasher. I think it was a Maytag, I've heard they are very dependable. I have a lady Kenmore which was left behind when she moved out and took everything else. Anyone try this method? I will today, I have nothing better to do.

here is the definitive thread about all things record cleaning. it touches all the bases and even has two related threads linked.

i've owned 5 different high quality record cleaning machines, and own 12,000 records. i thought i knew quite a bit about cleaning records. nope.

just how serious are you?

I bought one of those inexpensive cleaning devices that you turn the record by hand.... 10 turns forward and 10 backwards.... Using Dawn detergent. Dry with microfiber cloth and it works I think as well as a machine that costs thousands. I'm sorry but I'm not sticking my records in a dishwasher..... It sounds like an idea I may have had that would turn into a real disaster. The labels would be a problem and as a person said in another post, the heat cycle would be a killer if you forget to turn it off.
