I wash a few of all used LPs IN THE SINK. Some I just use a vacuum cleaner (like the one for the floor) So now you know...Cheap alternative would be to use Aquafina bottled water as a rinse. It is pure H2O. all contaminants removed. I have thousands of used LPs, they play just fine. Maybe I am just not as fussy? but there are typically zero tic or pops on my used LPs.. I buy clean ones to start with. No need to buy messed up ones. Sooner or later a good copy will find you.
Record cleaning and care
For those of your taking great care and using record cleaning machines for your vinyl lp collection are you using a pure rinse after your cleaning cycle and is their evidence this helps with purer sounding playback ?
I am using a Okki Nokki RCM and using their cleaner and also trying MoFi Deep Cleaning Solution. Been thinking of trying Enzymatic cleaners. I recently purchased a MoFi pure rinse solution and have been using on last few purchases, hard to tell if any difference but I can see a pure rinse good in theory. Also found a lab grade Ecoxall super deionized water and UV treated to kill all bacteria that cast less for a gallon as a 16 oz pure rinse I think will be just a pure of particles and residue. Do know cleaner records and stylus sounds much better!
