The end of your shirt and a little air from your mouth? That's what I always use.  |

half rubbing alcohol, half distilled and put it in a mist bottle.

| When I had TTs I bought the cleaning kit. With a felt brush, carbonfiber brush and a bottle of fluid. I think wiping a vinyl with your shirt just gets the dust deep into the grooves, correct me if Im wrong |

GuveGlide is good, but its a once or twice thing. You dont want to use it to clean your records every time. Its more of a treatment to keep dust from sticking. Read the can.

| I'm confused. Why do you need to clean the serato vinyl? It has no sound quality issue right? So then just a basic cloth would be all you require to clean off the obvious finger marks, not that they matter. |

Actually its just the opposite. You want to keep your Serato control records very clean. They see much more use that a normal record would. You want to keep the records clean so they last and give you the best performance. This goes for any record. I quick wipe with your shirt may get you buy, but your not doing your self any favors in the long run. There is no sound issue but there is a control signal issue. The Serato program is reading a signal off that record, and the better that signal is the better Serato will operate.
