Spin Clean fluid

I had a spin clean and it did a job, but it was a pain. As mentioned, drying was an issue for me. I put the semi-wet records in a dish rack but it was on a low table near a carpet and the static that built up acted like a magnet with the carpet fibers. I spent months trying to clean the fibers out as it would wrap around the stylus and I would need to meticulously with tweezers try to unwind them from my stylus after playing records. Even spin cleaning again (not near carpet) could get the fibers out until I got a VPI 16.5. I just played a record that I must not have used my VPI on and I heard a bad sounding record, looked at the stylus and saw the blob of carpet fibers from 4 years ago!

To answer your question, I would attempt to use the Spin Clean fluid with water as a presoak/wash. For my system I use the 3 step AVIS solution.   

Good suggestion.
I've settled on an Okki Nokki and know it comes with it's own cleaner. I also have Audio Intelligent #6 that I will use with the rcm. Again, I think the Spin Clean is ok; I just look forward to the convenience of the Okki Nokki. The results I achieved on my friend's ON seemed to better that of my Spin Clean. I too used to spread stuff (the SC, towels, and drying rack) out on my carpet and sit cross legged on the floor.  My legs went to sleep after two records. And again, it's simply a lot of setup and cleanup when cleaning only one or two records. I never encountered the static problem you did. You might want to make sure your furnace's humidifier is working properly.  Anyway, thanks for the input. 

"rockyboy" I do use the SC fluid with a RCM.  Note that I use the SC to scrub a record, then a Nitty Gritty to pull the solution from the LP.
