Record Cleaner

[Pudsi]

I was thinking about getting a Milty Pro Super Exstatic Record Cleaner

Anybody used one? Are they worth the money? Or is a cloth and some lubricant record cleaner just as good?

Cheers, Ade.

This appears to be a pretty standard dry record cleaning brush. You can find them new for $8. to $12. many places. I use one like this on every lp before I drop the stylus..
For wet cleaning you need something more like the Mobile Fidelity Cleaning brush.
Editing to add, I wouldn't be without one of these. Without a doubt a worthwhile investment.
Just do a web search and it should pull up many sellers. Sleeve City who has a link from the AK site is where I purchased my brushes.

A record brush should be used prior to EVERY play. Wet is better than dry. (Wet means slightly moist, not wet like a washrag.)

But just as important as keeping records clean is keeping the diamond debris free. So, purchase a good stylus cleaner too.
