Brushes and liquid don’t do squat except move the dirt around.

Thanks! I'll pull up the $900 I totally am in possession of to spend on something that will improve the sound of my plastic.

Perhaps I should get out of this game before it gets too expensive...

Is this not the right place to have posted an inquiry like this?

Hello everyone,

I've been collecting records since I received a player last Christmas, and the one issue in terms of audio playback on these machines that has consistently dogged me since then is that the needle on my player is often  clouded with dust and other debris, typically only after playing one song.  Does anyone have any advice for ensuring that debris stays off the needle? I frequently clean my records with a brush and cleaning solution, and I use a separate brush to remove unwanted material off of the needle. If anyone has any suggestion for ensuring that dust stays off of my records, it would be greatly appreciated.
