The Great Vinyl Experiment
- Thread starter Justen

Save it for the KC LP you have been seeking.:scratch2:
I hope you didn't hurt yourself on that high-speed about face.
Sorry, Justen. Ya gotta keep up. Meggy wanted one of those rock brushes, until I suggested he use it on the Court of the Crimnson King LP, the one for which he has been searching, and about which he posted, elsewhere on AK.
His reversal of position on the desirability of 'rock brushes' occurred at near-lightspeed, and surely must have caused him an injury.
All caught up, now?

Sounds like it's time to put the cork back in the McClelland's. :smoke
Speak English my good man! Never put a half full bottle away is my philosophy....

Hairy whats?
And if the word "Fotno" appears anywhere in your reply...you're a dead man!
Justen,
I wanted to thank you for a thread that was both informative and amusing.
Great Job!

You're welcome. Always willing to play the role of court jester...
The moment of clarity damn near broke my neck.

Well, since you asked....
I actually thought about posting this last week, but was rather busy. I left the PF album sitting uncovered and untouched since the beginning of this experiment. I had expected to see more dust on the Armour All treated area but that really wasn't the case. The AA area, and the Windex treated area were still quite shiny and clean looking. A quick test play (let's face it, this album doesn't lend itself to "critical listening") indicates no obvious degradation in sound quality.
I stand by the idea that this stuff does little damage to the vinyl itself. And I doubt it does any damage to a diamond stylus. What I would suggest it that anything goopy like ArmourAll probably builds up on the stylus and I don't think that is good. I still believe that the DIY cleaner is effective, maybe not as good as the fancy cleaners, but I haven't tested between them.
Yet.
Seeking sponsorship here! So if any manufacturer wants to send me a bottle of their stuff I'll jump on it! And since VPI has yet to send me one of their units to try, I'm biting the bullet and building my own RCM. Needless to say it was another late night, alcohol fueled brainchild and in my typical style it is massively overbuilt. Stay tuned, it is almost complete.....

Looking forward to it!
It is just great to watch. I have used Goo Gone on a DCC LP and don't hear any noise from it.
And I got that here!
