Really easy to clean records in this thing. It takes off all the dust, fingerprints and dirt, as well as static for the most part. It will not fix scratches, but it will fix just about anything else. I wondered if I should get an ultrasonic cleaner, I am glad I didn’t spend the money.I recommend doing a wash cycle (distilled water + spinclean fluid) and then a rinse cycle with just distilled water, and then leaving them on a rack to air dry. I also recommend not using the included towels to wipe your records; even after a few washes they shed little fibers. I used them under the drying rack and use the microfiber cloths meant for phone screens to get the remaining drops.
