l would just like to add l feel a valid point- leave the solution for 5 minutes then vacum off, gives the cleaning solution more time to do it's thang.:eek:

That's a thought...
Always assumed leaving the solution for a while gave the gunk time to sink back into the groove?

Not sure, been hoovering it up pretty much right away.
Hope I'm not wrong, spent most of this weekend cleaning records and I'm over half way through!

Yep I usually let it sit for a few mins too so it can soften it up the a little more added and a second brush b4 vaccum. been cleaning a few of late and using a a mix of my own and Pauls cool and a drop of emzyme added to help with old greasy marks etc

Aye i always leave it standing a while.. When you think about it what's the rush when your spending hours talking utter shit on here im sure an extra five mins wont hurt :eyebrows:

True 'dat!

I'll let it sit for a couple of mins and give it a second brush before letting suckage commence.
Earth shatteringly important stuff as always! :D

Suckage :D

here's what i do,its a deep clean mind and you can only do a couple of lp's before you loose the will to live!
i use A.I.V.S 3 step cleaners.
1st is the enzymatic solution,i let that sit for 20 mins,then vac off and rinse twice.
2nd is their isopropanol based cleaner,i brush clockwise and anti-clockwise for 3 mins then vac off and rinse twice.
then i use the disc doctor's miracle cleaning solution repeating the brushing as above.vac off.
lastly 2 rinses.
if that lot doesn't give you good results your records fu*ked! lol

No way on earth would i let any form of Meths near my records. No way.

sorry i didnt mean meths i meant isopropanol,meths is what i drink after the cleaning!
