Vinyl Record Cleaning Tools
Choose drying supplies for your washing method
Identify how the washer maker directs you to dry the disc. A prepared cloth, a separate rack and a machine drying cycle each play a different role.
Start with the washer directions
Spin-Clean instructs users to wipe each record thoroughly dry with its prepared cloths. Some other machines have a dedicated drying cycle. Match the method to the washer instead of assuming that every process ends the same way.
Keep clean cloths separate
For a batch, set aside used cloths so you can identify a clean contact surface. Compare the cloth size with the working area you need to cover and check how the maker says to wash it before reuse.
Check the record before sleeving
Inspect both faces after completing the drying steps. If a machine lets you select a separate drying cycle, consult its own instructions. Keep a clean area for dry records apart from the washing supplies.
