Hi Mike,
NO thread drift - absolutely OT . At the moment I am using the supplied Moth cleaning fluid, which is 25% IPA, reverse-osmosis filtered water, and some sort of wetting agent.
It seems to do the job. I set the turntable to rotate and then apply the solution with a CF brush, gently scrubbing as I go. Three rotations anti-clockwise, and then three rotations clockwise. This leaves the record completely clean and dry.
I will experiment with some other cleaning fluids and brushes as I go to see what works best. I will check out the Art du Son fluid. Not sure about washing up liquid though.. I know it breaks the surface tension but it does contain some salt, which isn't ideal. I understand that you can get a wetting agent from Jessops or other photographic stores and this is safe and performs the same functions.
Regards,
Alex
