In the Groove" record cleaner
Not one to jump on the bandwagon gimmick wise, but i thought i would take a chance on the In the Groove" record cleaner....well to sum it up....It works!...i took 5 albums that have not been cleaned in a long time and rolled the In the Groove" record cleaner over them and it picked up all kinds of dirt/residue and even fingerprints lol.......im not saying to replace your RCM with it, but for $10-$29 its a quick fix cleaning ......leaves no residue and when the stickiness wears down......simply wash it and dry.

Re: In the Groove" record cleaner
haha!! awesome i forgot about these, i used to have one and seems must have got lost when i moved. but yes they do work for a quick sweep , especially for those of us without and automatic ultrasonic record cleaner to just pop them in. was a great product for in between cleanings and when you forget the record on your platter and gets dusty.
thanksSteve

Re: In the Groove" record cleaner
I've often wondered about this thing and have always dismissed it as snake oil before. I wonder though, it looks very much like my lint remover for clothing and is actually the same thing, by description, just a different color. So does it just remove surface dust and dirt? If so, wouldn't a CF brush do the same thing?

It "looks" like a Lint remover, but its not the same thing at all........you just wash this when you cleaned a few records and wash it and its as good as new.....it takes off dirt/dust and even fingerprints/oils.....mold release/spores(maybe?) ......for the cheap price i got it for its great so far.Main System:Mcintosh MC601's Amplifer,Mcintosh C1000/C1000T Preamp,Kef Ref 5 Speakers,Mcintosh MCD1100 CDP,Mcintosh MT 5 TT, Olive 04HD, Acoustic Zen Absolute Shotgun Cables,4 ELECTRA™ 7 Power Cords&2 Pairs of

Re: In the Groove" record cleaner
I actually have a lint remover that works like that. That said though if it also takes off fingerprints/oils (although I am careful with my records..once in a while...hey it's gonna happen).....well, then I may have to pick me up one of these. Hmm, I wonder if I should use it before cleaning a record thinking perhaps it may help even more in some way?
