many years ago when i still lived in the states i used
to go vinyl shopping for old 7"s and vinyl lps and 12"s.
scratches in the vinyl are impossible to get rid of but
dust and fingerprints are very easy.
but dust - my partner in crime and i - we used to wash
the vinyl gently with dish washing liquid making sure not
to get the labels wet - used to let them air dry and 90%
of dust would be removed.
some people swear by using something with an alcohol base-
like wiping your arm before you get blood taken - but i
dont think vinyl with anything other than soap & water
makes any sense and drying them off has the potential of
putting dust particles from the cloth right back into the
grooves.
although some people do prefer the sound of dust created
on vinyl.
