Over the past several months I've invested a fair amount of time exploring ultrasonic cleaning because I've fallen way too far behind in my record cleaning. With over 6000 LPs, I needed a faster way to clean than my trusted multi-step manual wet/vac cleaning process. In exploring ultrasonic cleaning, my hope was to find that I could complete multiple LPs in a single US cleaning cycle and greatly speed up my rate of cleaning records. My goals were to FIRST do no harm and then SECOND see how close I could get to the results of my manual cleaning regimen.
My past experiences with ultrasonic cleaning demonstrations were COMPLETELY UNDERWHELMING. What I've learned is that getting ultrasonic record cleaning right requires multiple elements to the cleaning process that must be used in combination. Once I got it right, the results have far exceeded my expectations.
Positive Feedback has graciously posted my essay summarizing what I've learned and what I'm now doing in my ultrasonic cleaning regimen to get THE BEST RECORD CLEANING RESULTS I've achieved in over 40 years of cleaning records. The link to my essay is below. Come back here with to share your experiences or questions. I look forward to our conversation about what is possible!
