Compared to the popular brands on the market, this Record Cleaning Machine has the following distinctive advantages:
- Easy to clean after each wash – just wipe off the liquid then the cleaner shines as new ( unlike other brands use painted MDF particle boards which will become quite ugly overtime)
- You can hardly damage the wand – it places onto records by vacuum and pop up by itself when you stop the vacuum. One piece design – each to change – you don’t even need any tools.
- No surrounding structure around the record edge – you can easily put on and take off records and spray cleaning liquid without worrying about wet the cleaner box or leave liquid in any corners
- Great vacuum power – it cleans and dries the record in about 1 1/2 rotation – yes the high power vacuum is a bit loud – this is the time you pull out you iPod, wear the headphones and sing with it 🙂
- Dimensions: 14.6″ W x 10.6″ D x 15″ W
- Weight: 26 lbs
For cleaning process:
We recommend you to use a soft pre-vacuum brush to rub cleaning fluid to the record so that no surface is left uncleaned. You can usually find such soft brush from local record stores or turntablebasic.com for very affordable price.
You also need a spray bottle and cleaning liquid of course. Any household cleaning spray bottle will do – please rinse clean before putting in the record cleaning fluid. A common recipe for the cleaning fluid is distilled water and 99% rubbing alcohol (both available at drugstore at little cost), 1:1.
Note: Please clamp the fluid tube when you are cleaning records to create a sealed vacuum in the tank. Otherwise water will end up pooling under the cleaning machine. You only need to drain the tube after each cleaning session before you put away the RCM or if you start to see dirty liquid in the tube when you clean many records at one time.
