LAB POINTS: This GrooveWasher starter kit safely and effectively gets rid of dust, dirt, and fingerprints from your vinyl records. Cleaning with it can significantly enhance the sound quality of your records. The wet clean system includes a brush handle, a cleaning pad, a label mask, and G2 cleaning fluid. The G2 fluid is an upgraded version of the classic 70's D series cleaners. It's non - reactive to vinyl and has anti - static action on contact. The milled, hand - rubbed American Walnut wood handle uses a velcro design, allowing you to easily replace the cleaning pads when needed. The velcro cleaning pad is made of split microfiber and other absorbent fabrics. The label mask keeps your record labels dry when spraying the G2 fluid. A two - ounce bottle of G2 fluid can clean both sides of over 50 records. And it's proudly made in the USA! GROOVEWASHER vs. DISCWASHER: Groovewasher's G2 fluid uses advanced surfactants and wetting agents for maximum cleaning of delicate vinyl, leaving minimal residue and no clogging in the microgroove. Discwasher's D4 fluid is mostly isopropyl alcohol, which can make vinyl brittle and cause more wear on the groove. Groovewasher's cleaning pad is microfiber with small split ends that reach deep into the grooves and is highly absorbent, while Discwasher's is less effective. The Groovewasher attaches the pad via velcro for easy replacement. The quality of Groovewasher materials, especially the handcrafted handle and pad, is much higher. Groovewasher comes with a label mask, but Discwasher doesn't. Groovewasher is made in the USA, while Discwasher is from China. Groovewasher is more expensive but of higher quality and more effective, and Discwasher is cheaper but less effective. Also, Groovewasher looks better aesthetically. COMES WITH: (1) 4oz. bottle of G2 cleaning fluid with a mist spray nozzle, (1) solid milled American Walnut handle, (1) all - purpose removable cleaning pad, and a label protector mask.
Using your GrooveWasher Record Cleaner Starter Kit is a breeze. First, grab the 4oz. bottle of G2 cleaning fluid and spray a little of it on the cleaning pad. Make sure not to over - spray to avoid getting the label wet. That's where the label mask comes in handy; place it over the record label before spraying. Then, gently run the cleaning pad along the grooves of your vinyl record. The split microfiber in the pad will reach deep down to pick up dust, dirt, and fingerprints. After cleaning, you can easily replace the cleaning pad thanks to the velcro design on the milled American Walnut handle. As for the G2 fluid, it's important to note that it's non - reactive to vinyl, so you don't have to worry about any damage. However, always store the fluid in a cool, dry place. When it comes to maintaining your kit, regularly check the cleaning pad for dirt build - up. If it gets too dirty, replace it. Keep the handle clean and dry to ensure its long - lasting quality. And remember, a little bit of the G2 fluid goes a long way; a two - ounce bottle can clean both sides of over 50 records!
