Gruv Glide is made of something I don't know. Pure Vinyl, according to what I've heard, does not contain alcohol. Others might be willing to share what they know.
I use it in conjunction with a vinyl record cleaning brush from Collector Protector, which is also available on Amazon. Great little brush that cleans the grooves quickly before playing by misting it with the fluid.
I'm not sure, but I always use the old d4.
I'm not sure how many per container there are. Although I cleaned 250 45's so far with the directions supplied and possibly only used 10 if that much of the container was used. It's also a great solution. I put 100 45s in my jukebox after cleaning them.
Selected User Reviews For Pure Vinyl Record Cleaner by Collector Protector 7fl oz Spray Bottle
Normally, I wait for Amazon to send me an email asking for a buyer review of the product or service I've purchased. I decided to review this product within 48 hours of receiving it this time. This cleaner is extremely effective. I've been a collector since I bought my first two 45RPM records (Telstar by the Tornadoes). Everyday B- with Peggy Sue I began cleaning my vinyl records with the Ronco record cleaner in 1962 and have continued to do so throughout the decades! Despite the fact that I now only listen to music on my computer, I still have over 500 albums that I clean twice a year. A fellow collector recommended this item, and I bought it based on his recommendation, and I noticed a difference in sound quality. I also got a nice email from the owner thanking me for purchasing his product; I appreciate that kind of follow-up.
It's amazing how well it cleans records of dirt and dust. He's found a lot of skips that were difficult to find. I'm currently working on a project to digitize approximately 200 records, and this has been extremely beneficial. br>br>However, there is one word of warning: Once the fluid is on the record, don't leave it alone for more than a few minutes; it needs to be evenly distributed with a microfiber cloth or a record brush, or residue will build up on the surface. When the record is played or washed again, it will reveal itself. However, the first time I played the record after letting the fluid dry without distributing it, the stylus dug up the residue and left it as little white dots all over the record-- The sight was both startling and concerning. They're easily brushed off, but going through that with the stylus or the record can't be good.
The products then became thicker and less clear after a few months, leaving a film on the records. What's interesting is that I was perplexed as to why I was finding tiny white spots on my record (imagine someone spray painting near your record player and discovering tiny white dots on your record), but after reading some of the reviews, I realized why.
This product leaves a residue on your records, as other users have mentioned. Records cleaned with this product have become noisier, and a white powder has appeared on the cartridge and LP surface after a few spins. This is the worst cleaner I've ever used, and I've spent a lot of money on my gear and collection. This is not a good idea.
A small bottle of Purebr>Vinyl Record Cleaner is included in the kit. The Collector Protector is a fantastic piece of equipment! I have a sizable vinyl collection, as well as a sizable cleaning task ahead of me. That's why I bought the big bottle (200 ml) so I can keep working on my cleaning and categorization project. Thank you for producing such a fantastic product!.
I've tried both of the cleaning methods that this product claims to work with, and I've followed the directions to the letter. In both cases, I've discovered that it degrades the sound of a NM record. There is audible residue (noise) in the grooves that wasn't there before it was supposed to be cleaned. Upon re- The noise was gone after cleaning the record in another way. I'm not sure why this product has such a positive reputation.
When older people learn that I enjoy Merseybeat, Mod, and pop music, they often give me records. blues from the 1960s They've usually been kept in a garage or basement, so when I get them, they'll need some tender loving care. I've found that this works well on dust, age speckles on vinyl, and even minor scratches, reducing background noise, and I was able to get the skip out of the Bee Gees' "First. ".
I'm a bargain vinyl shopper, and when I first get a record, I clean it with a spin clean system before playing it. Once the album has dried, I discovered that this product gives it a cleaner appearance and sound. It's also a great way to pass the time while you're not playing. I would recommend it over others that I have tried.
