ive heard of somewhere you can send records to and they give them a vinyl wash which gets rid of crackles etc. dunno if its true though.

My brother bought himself an up-market record cleaner because it was cheaper than always getting them done professionally. He swears by it. It uses a "Solution" to loosen the crud and a (Non-contact) vacuum cleaner to suck it out. He says the solution looks strangely familiar and he reckons that soapy water would do the job just as well.

But he's not had the bottle to try it yet...

:thumbsup: Hi have always used warm water and mild detergent! also you can use lighter fluid ,try not to smoke whilst doin this tho !the warm water and washing up liquid will do the trick of removing crud but those crackles and hisses just wont go away !When using warm water method use new clean sponge and ensure you dont catch label as some colors can run ! No joke found that these methods do work and are safe enuf.
