Wanted: Cheap Record Cleaning Machine

[Mike]

Well, it's on the rinse cycle... are we placing bets?

[Stratmangler]

Washing up liquid is a no-no.
Amongst things, it leaves a residue on the record, which attracts dirt for fun.
Your records will end up in a worse state than when you started.

[Mike]

I've just had a sneaky look at the progress...

Ladies and Gentlemen, please choose from the following options. I'll keep it simple!

1> Gleaming and (visually) totally unharmed.

2> Gleaming but the labels a looking are bit sorry for themselves.

3> Ruined!

Take yer pick.... I'll be posting a photograph of the results in due course!

2> Gleaming but the labels a looking a bit sorry for themselves.

I'll go for that one If it cleans the record well it might be worth a thin coat of matt (or satin, take your choice) acrylic laquer on the labels to save them in the future

I reckon ruined - you've effectively given the record a wet sandblasting

[Mike]

Interesting choices!

[Mothman]

Well they reckon you can cook fish in a dishwasher, so with that kind of heat I'm going for option 3 - Knackered

[Mike]

I'm that impressed, I've put it on again!... this time on the "Intensive" cycle to see if I can improve on the result so far!

[Mike]

BTW, "Intensive" has a max temp of 65C.

[Stratmangler]

So it's assumed a different shape then ?
A bit like this
