I’m thinking about getting some of this to use with my Record Doctor VI after I run out of the fluid that came with it. Every review if seen had been positive.

I will say initially I preferred the homebrew… why? It foamed a bit and seemed like on the surface it was doing more…. Then I looked at it under the scope and changed my mind…. Just keep in mind; it requires a rinse

I've been using the Tergikleen solution with my home made wet-vac system for years, along with a second treatment with just distilled water as a rinse. Works like a charm and is very economical. I've cleaned probably 7-800 records and still have 2/3 of a bottle of solution left. 10-15 drops in a gallon of water is all it takes.

I like my SME Loricraft machine but it is more expensive than this approach. Thanks for the great detail and content here!

How does the record sound after it’s cleaned by the tergikleen? Any other solutions you prefer? Thanks for the videos

Hello Ben! nice video man, the way that the microscope shoes the solution acting on the vinyl grooves!. Here in Argentina its kinda hard to get the Tergikleen so i got me a bottle of Kodak Photo-Flo (they also sell Ilfotol but is quite expensive), is it viable to use it in case i don't have Tergikleen?

how much photo flow should i use?

@BensAudioCave 2 жыл бұрын

If you’re going to do photo-flo try 15-25 drops per gallon… it’s basically triton x100 and propylene glycol mixed… for me and this video; I found tergikleen to be a much better solution and to have less surface tension than the home brew solution
