Steam cleaning records 2

I wonder what a psychiatrist would have to say about us posters on this thread?

Before long we will be steaming our records in a hermetically sealed chamber to avoid airborn particles.

The laws of diminishing returns ?

Where can one buy such a chamber? Are the audiophile versions better than the industrial versions?

I was off to buy a sealed chamber ... Glad I missed the Jaw, Jaw ...

As for a Psychiatrist, I know one that thinks nothing of dropping gads of green on audio toys but doesn't clean his LPS. You should hear what a 10k cartridge sounds like running over yesterdays potato chips.

For those of us that read, an excellent letter was published in Positive Feedback several years back by a fellow who had lots of credentials from thr U.of FL. According to his review a the lit. neither water or alcohol can harm vinyl unless subjected to hours of chemical dousing. Steam Cleaning done correctly is a brief event that makes a significant impact on dirty LPS , not one's already affected by owner abuse of manufacturing defects. After having Steam Cleaned for years my experience has been quite positive . But, that experience makes me awaire of how many records new & used are defective. When I buy them for pennies I could care-less but when I spend $30 & up I want perfection that is rarely there.

Had I understood water purity my 350a Hot Shot would be working but that's history.

As for Tvad he chose not to answer my questions regarding him actually being a Steam Cleaner. That failure to respond makes me suspect he is a fraud to the extent he just likes to flame-out on posters. Tvad may not even own a single piece of vinyl .... I'm toast. I only want to converse with REAL vinyl lovers. I'm out of here.

Crem1, you may recall I returned by Perfection Steam cleaner to Walgreen's when the State of California lead warning label was discovered on the bottom of the box.

Since then, I have found hand cleaning with the Audio Intelligent products and Disc Doctor record cleaning brushes perfectly satisfactory. Frankly, steaming never produced revelatory results, although they were certainly worth the $12 cost of the steamer.

Have fun.
