    For water I would recommend this http://pureklenz.co.uk/purified-wate...FUWVGwod0aYNDQ as BP/EP grade water is manufactured to a defined specification,DI is not and the QC is generally rubbish,or in some cases non existent.I've worked on 100's DI/BP systems over the years and it's not uncommon to find diluted HCL and NaOh being passed to service from DI systems with the client being totally unaware as they had zero QC in place and relied on the plant alone,also DI will have high bacterial count's,not good for non alcoholic mixes as the bugs will grow quickly,see here http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/thread...rading.399260/

    IPA can be purchase on line and I use dishwasher rinse aid as a surfactant.I tried lart du son but found it left a residue and needed another rinse with pure water to remove it,never bother with the IPA mix,once is enough.

    Thanks Graham and all for your input. I'll look in to that water...

    BTW, how long do you leave your LP's for before putting them back in the sleeve? Some (including me) used to put them back in almost straight away but some leave them out for 30mins??

    mine are dry when they come off turntable Jo. I just hit them with the ion gun then into sleeves; my fluid is anti static but no harm in adding a blast from the gun too. which I have to say Ive ran out of again

    Felt strips - where is the best place to buy? Ebay or other ones? Should these stick to the inside if the tube too?

    Inner sleeves.. Currently using audio works which seem nice and good quality.

    Outer sleeves, which ones are the best? And which ones are second best?

    Any suggestions would be great

    Many thanks

    Thanks very much, Alex for that.

    Lol... Ilford, Kodak.. Takes me back to my uni days developing photos in creepy dark rooms.

    I'll certainly keep that in mind and maybe buy some of that too.

    Regarding outer sleeves, which ones are best as in thickness... Most are sold on the thickness in microns.. A bit geeky I know but hey I'm a geeky gal. 😁
