My record and stylus cleaners date from 1980s, both Discwasher. Record
cleaner is pad mounted on wood block and solution; and stylus cleaner is
stiff pad/brush and solution. Would like recommendations for and up to date
record cleaner and stylus cleaner. The turntable specialists have so many
products I can't decide.

Most of my records are stored in sleeves and are fairly grime-free so this
would be used to remove dust just before playing.

Michael:

To CLEAN your record, use the Disc Doctors Record Cleaning System; you
can get more information at http://discdoc.com/. Although I own a VPI
HW-17F record cleaning machine, and it does an excellent job, is
convenient and will clean a lot of records in a short time, you can't
beat the Dr's. system.

To remove light dust, etc., what you need is a Hunt or Audioquest carbon
fiber brush. The "Dr." also offers these for sale.

Cheers,

Jack
