[78-L] Best way to clean 78s

[H D Goldman]

Cary,

I must ask you to refrain from making in accurate referrals to my record cleaning products.  A pint of our Miracle Record Cleaner is $25 & makes up 1.5 pints of working solution.  The price you stated includes a pint of Cleaner & 4 oz. dispenser, a pair of our 12" sized wet cleaning brushes with spare pads & the average cost of s/h within the US when paid by credit card as clearly presented at our website.  

Personally I'm more a listener than a collector & to paraphrase the old Columbia ads, hearing all the beauty of all the music.  The sound quality of fine analog recordings stands as the reference point for media striving to replace it.

These are generally junky records and do not have to be treated as reverently as pricey one-of-a-kind items. At least I wouldn't spend $77.40 for a pint of liquid to clean records that are worth 25 cents. Dish soap is fine for those. The "best" way for me to go to the grocery store is in a chauffeured limousine, but my 2003 Camry does the job just fine.
