[78-L] Cleaning Gels

[Malcolm - Venerable Music]

Very interesting! I can see how this would work with vinyl records as the 
glue is Poly-Vinyl based as well & the glue would not be overly adhesive to 
the surface, but would this work the same way with shellac?
Anyone ever try it on an older record? I would be afraid that unlike a vinyl 
record the glue would actually adhere to the surface of a 78.
