The Art & Science of Record Cleaning

The Art & Science of Record Cleaning: A Practical Guide to Cleaner Grooves and Better Sound

After years of testing cleaning methods, experimenting with surfactants, and reading research papers that weren't exactly written for normal humans, Rick Coste (The Joy of Vinyl) put together the guide he wishes someone had handed him when he started. From a simple carbon fiber brush to a full multi-step ultrasonic routine, this book walks you through every level of record cleaning with the reasoning behind each choice.
