Looking forward to receiving the Velvet Vortex, getting a space for it sorted out, and a stack of LP’s to get through…
Getting back to listening properly to music again has made the last year just that bit easier, even better now that a few of the pops crackles etc should be a thing of the past…

I think you’ll be surprised how much better your records will sound after a proper clean in an ultrasonic cleaner.

Hi Tim
Who’s the carrier delivering the Vortex, the shop will be open until 5:30pm to accept deliveries.

Hi @IainD
It is DPD
I dropped off yesterday but they did say it might not get out until today because it was a bit later than I usually drop off parcels.
So it may be tomorrow for delivery
Hope that helps
Tim
Hi Tim just received the vortex, will get it set up tonight when I get home.
Thanks again
Iain

Are you opening an industrial record cleaning plant?
(Or do you just get it ‘free’ from work? 
)
Where did you get it from? I’ve used up all of mine making hand sanitisers for some vulnerable people round here when there was a shortage.

It’s from Höfer Chemie but I live in France so that may not be much help I’m afraid…
There must be a UK equivalent that sells to non-business customers I’d have thought?

There’s a place in Haydock that sells it for a reasonable price:

Some of the deals are collection only, but maybe Bob could grab some for you?

I really need to sort out a new batch of cleaning fluid. Pretty sure the last run I did made the record dirtier
Top tip:
Don’t use the dirty dishwater just to save a few bob.
