Control Vinyl

PVK01 10:09 PM - 7 March, 2007
Ive had my SSL for about 3 weeks now and have noticed the control vinyl gets dirty faster than any other vinyl Ive owned....Is there a cleaning agent out there thats made for this vinyl? I was gonna use a lil rubing alcahol but I dont know how that would affect the vinyl...

use a little rubbing alcohol!
also a microfiber cloth to pich up the dust when your spinning!
i been doing this for over a year!
and no problems.
also carry a #2 pencil to use the eraser end to clean inside your connectors before plugging in your cartridges.

DO NOT USE ANY RUBBING ALCOHOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a product made for such a thing and you can pick up at many different stores, its called GRUV GLIDE and it works great on records and dust! I have been spinning for over 15 years now and trust me you wont be using anything else after you use GRUV GLIDE!

Werd! I use one application before I play and thats all I need to do. If it gets dusty then just wipe the records real fast.

I use comet and a belt sander. It works like a champ, lol. =P




Seriously, I use a little bottle of distilled water and a 100% cotton cloth.
