chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 bought a little squirt bottle w/ solution @ the record store-- sprayed some on me and i swear its just rubbing alcahol. well, what is the proper mix for a little 5 oz squirt thingy, do you just fill it w/ alc., or is it an ALC/H2O MIX? what do you guys do? ive never used anything like this b4 but i have a lot of dusty records i guess and i do think they sound better after being cleaned and wiped w/ a lint free cloth- what do u think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 No more than 1/4 alcohol:water ratio is what I've always gone by. That's using a VPI machine also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chas Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 I suppose anybody who owns 78s knows not to clean them with alcohol , as that will dissolve the shellac . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasing the Korean Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 Does anyone have any information on how to clean acetates? I have a number of these, many of which have evolved a mysterious outer film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
