Ok so I've been looking at various sprays and brushes for vinyl at chemical records and i dont know which to choose? Can somebody point me in the direction of the products you use to clean your vinyl?
I'm seeing dust in my grooves! Must clean. Thanks.

I've heard that a product called gruv glide works really well. I haven't used it myself, but I know there are many on this board that recommend it. Can someone plase confirm this?

1 part rubbing alcohol to 9 parts water.
microfiber towel (and if you wash it dont use fabric softener).

I found this thread about record cleaning/stylus care on Future Producers to be interesting. I actually use the methods described in the first post (incidentally enough written by an Ortofon representative) and they do the trick very well.

hmmm 1 part rubbing alc and 9 parts water sounds interesting. I already have a micro fiber cloth. Any other people here use this technique? 1 oz alc and 9 oz water?

it has to be distilled water (you know the shit they use in irons).
Regular water drys leaving ''salt'' in the grooves.
