Herman,
Just got back from a week away, thus the delayed response. Glad you're enjoying the experience with the RRL stuff so far. Even if your DD fluid worked just as well, as you say the amount of time and distilled spent rinsing would leave it a second best approach. For new/clean-looking records I find 6-8 drops of each RRL fluid is plenty. Flooding the record is actually counterproductive since it makes it harder to vacuum properly. For dirty records I usually do two passes of DC before rinsing with VW, using a cheap Last brush for the first pass.
Jyprez,
If you'd like to try some RRL let me know. I could drop some off at your office or you're always welcome to visit - with a few LP's to spin of course! I remember hearing that warning about Photo-Flo too. Whether it's true or not I can't say, but since I don't need Photo-Flo it's not important for me to know.
