Your method of record cleaning might be practical for a DJ in a booth. But in this way, all you're really doing is spreading debris around, and embedding it further into the grooves without extracting it. A wise investment for any record collector is the purchase of one of the many vacuum record cleaning machines available on the market today... the VPI 16.5 Record Cleaner is a reasonably cheap place to start, and a fantastic machine. Recently I picked up a Nitty Gritty 2.5 Fi-XP..a Godsend.

The way I clean records is by placing it on top of a fleece sweater on a table, using a pump spray such as Pfanstiehl record cleaner (they're great to use and inexpensive, probably cost $6-7 a bottle) and two record cleaning brushes, one to wet-clean the record and another to dry-clean it. Make sure you clean off the dirt and dust on the sweater before trying this.

rock out!!!

[panhead1219]

And yet it's OK to put yer grubby, yeasty, and OILY paw prints on the actual vinyl instead,like you just did?

So far, everything that "expertvillage" says is very stupid and wrong!

[fatshoolaces]

@panhead1219 lol ! i watched a few of their vids and i was like WTF !

[panhead1219]

@fatshoolaces The people they hire are rather retarded.

[WorldShark]

Why is expert village so awful? Quit flooding youtube with poorly-made, uninformative minute long videos!

[Calloo7]

i fucking love this guy, such a lad

[PLEASEgiveMEadvice]

hello i went to a record store and they had a set of 14 80's records and i have a record player so i bought them but they are really dirty and i really need to clean them but i tried to use a cleaner with a brush and ruined the label on 2 of my records so what is a cleaning machine or thing that is easy for non collectors to use!

[pampers1919]

he is a nice stoner lol but, why doesnt it show his face?

[stijnkraft]

It's possible to take them out of their sleeve without touching the seam. Just stick your hand under the record and put your fingers at the label like you do.

Also, you might want to store the inner sleeves with their open side up instead of sideways. This way the record will never fall out of it's sleeve accidentally ;)

wow !! he is actually talking sense ! for a change, which just go's to show, even a fool can get it right once in a while.

[DWilkins82]

Can you clean vinyl with WD-40.

[jacobsanchez24]

@DWilkins82 I wouldnt try to just use warm water and dish soap

[farerse]

which hand is best to hold the record with?

[gretscher]

The subtitles are cool. So maybe a deaf person can read what he's saying so he can clean his records before playing then. That's really good thinking. Hey Beethoven was deaf, right?

[dragonx13x]

@gretscher lmfao. you win.

[6600blackburn]

I don't know what you guys' problem is with this, yeah you're not supposed to scratch it obviously but this is really good simple explanations a lot of people can use

[joewalla]

Yeah, a peter-puffing stoner!

[esham2001]

[djSpinege]

in other words. don't scratch? lol ...
