[78-L] Best way to clean 78s

[Robert M. Bratcher Jr.]

For most records (including 78's) the Keith Monks record cleaning machine (there 
are cheaper vacuum machines than this though) works great although I've cleaned 
the really dirty records with a little dish soap, warm water, a toothbrush then 
a dry towel. After that I clean it again on the Monks. Works for me.....

Best way: Disc Doctor Cleaning Solution/ Disc Doctor Brushes/ suck dry with
record cleaning machine... Another cleaning round with distilled water and
another pair (clean) Disc Doctor Brush. Vacuum again..!
