Re: [ARSCLIST] ultrasonic bath for records



It's the recommended material for use in the Monks, but you mix it 1:200 with steam distilled water. Liquid flying off the disc shouldn't be an issue if you apply it properly, and I believe the rotating speed of the turntable is around 70RPM. I can't speak for earlier models.

Be careful with that Fotoflow. I found that if you use too much, it leaves a residue behind that's damn near impossible to get off. I actually made vinyl noisier with what seemed like a tiny amount. It's very powerful stuff. I have no idea how bad it wants to stick to a 78 though.

I have a large ultrasonic tank which would accommodate anything. However, I am concerned about labels.

I envision a spit with multiple records separated by spacers, driven slowly by a stepped down electric motor. As far as the solution is concerned, maybe the LC cleaning formula, perhaps with some extra Fotoflow. With enough Fotoflow, the liquid should quickly recede from the advancing side of the disc, thereby preventing liquid from dripping down the face of the label. What do you think?
