Nice Crazyfrog.:thmbsp:

I think it's great that you have your son helping out, he looks like he's having fun with Dad.
 
Is that an empty Sriracha bottle being used? That's a great idea if so... way better nozzle for squirting solution then the flip cap tops on everything I have now.

The bottle is Thai Sauce bottle, I bought it for 15 Baht (about 50 cents).
Glad to know someone that knows about Sriracha, I like the Spicy Sriracha!!

25% seems more a common recipe, what percentage do you use and why is 25 oo high? Also , one can buy 99, 90, all the way down to 50% at the store. So what is the better tried and true amount?

Though in the past, using alcohol on vinyl LPs was considered safe, experts now caution against it unless absolutely necessary, as alcohol threatens the loss of the plasticizer or stabilizer

I believe it can't be great for vinyl, what do you use if it is a self made solution.
