Review: I've been collecting vinyl and DJing the massive crowds in my apartment for nearly a year now, so why has it taken me so long to drop $20 on a cleaning kit?
Answer: I'm lazy. I know it doesn't seem like I am a lazy person since I bring you heart-stoppingly interesting reviews every single day, but when it comes to common sense things like keeping things dust-free, I am a bum.
However, upon learning that there was a pretty great DJ/Electronics store right down the road from me, I decided to head up there and get it done.
Who knew $20 could buy a guy like me such listening pleasure. I mean, sure I enjoy the occasional crackle and pop while listening to vinyl (that's part of the charm), but some of my records have been purchased from Maxwell Street and/or thrift stores who aren't as anal as I am about media. You can imagine what running my turntable cartridge over a thick layer of dirt and spilled Coca-cola does to the listening experience.
Well, no more! with this simple kit, I can use the dry brush to wipe off stray dust or load the brush with the special D4 Cleaning Fluid for those tough to get out groove stains. No more needle jumping while I try and mix hip-hop beats and polka melodies together!

Thanks for writing about this thing. I always assumed that record cleaners were more expensive affairs, as I used to live with a guy who wasn't happy with anything audio-related until he spent $100 on it.
I have previously just used an anti-static spray and a no-scratch cloth. A lot of my records, not to mention the life of my needle, would really benefit from a good washin'.
