Marco's cleaning process with new vinyl, using an RCM

I am using a £6.99 facial natural brush from Boot`s works like a charm ;)

Probably the same one I'm using. :-)

And what do you guys use for your vinyl? :D

LOL

Not sure about a brush not getting into the groove. The end of a fine hair on a brush is smaller than the diamond stylus. surely?

The Loricraft type brushes have a width that is less than that of the groove so the do go into it, as do most carbon fibre ones. That's why it is so important to have a materiel less hard than the vinyl.

Would have to be pretty small to get to the bottom of the groove, as that's where the majority of the dust/dirt would be I'd have thought.

By and large you need to get the fluid below the top of the groove so it can spread into them. On the other point if you look at thr grooves under a microscope, a lot of the dirt is actually held in the groove walls, not just at the bootom.

Yep, I imagine dry brushing would not get rid of this.

It was always my understanding the the fluid did the work. The brush is just to make sure it gets into the grooves.
