Got an LP cleaner you want to make money on?

If what some have been talking about when you say cleaning a record is using one of those padded velvet brushes on a new LP, I would advise strongly against doing that. That's as clean as that LP surface is ever going to be.. I just blow off anything that might be on there for as long as possible without ever touching the surface with that brush or anything else. I do use one of those padded velvet brushes occasionally, but only as a last resort and after the LP having been played many times.

If you think that tiny diamond tip maybe catching one or two pieces of lint is capable of causing problems, think about what problems you're causing by dragging that big wide padded velvet brush over the entire new pristine surface, under a great deal more pressure than 1.75 grams, and that is still embedded with all the stuff from every LP you've ever wiped with it. No matter how much you think brushing it off on your pant leg cleans it off.

I now clean records for other vinyl friends from Spin a group of people who meet on Sundays to listen to music. I would have no issues with cleaning records for people in the Boston area if they were interested. There would be a cost but low. This would also be a way to meet new people into the same hobby and that's a good thing. Meeting other people in to this hobby around the Boston area seems more difficult. There are no groups other than Spin that I know of like I see in other states.

As stated earlier shipped records I would not be interested.

That's a great idea Hevac1. We're down to only one high end audio store in the area and it's 45 miles away.. Used to have several nice ones years ago.

Now I want to try and make an ultrasonic cleaner, lol.....and it starts.....Also noticed a Sota for a great deal. Sota vs 16.5????? OUCH, lol.

Ctsooner:
You can buy bench top ultrasonic cleaners large enough to dip LP's into for a few hundred dollars instead of paying several thousand. No automatic rotation of the LP but you could rig up something or just turn them by hand.

Just make sure you take into account the size of the LP, the width and distance up to the label (because you don't want or need to dunk past the label) and how deep the tank's max limit of liquid is to make sure an LP will fit before you buy.

There are no such things as magical ultrasonic bubbles made just for LPs. No matter what the marketing dept. of the LP cleaners say.. Ultrasonics are ultrasonics. I have one in my shop and keep meaning to clean it out and try it out with some distilled water and will one of these days. I use it to clean tools, parts, etc. and wouldn't want to dunk an LP in that stuff.. I'm using a cheap $20 clothes steamer on my LPs right now and it does a great job.
