I definitely do NOT constantly touch belt/pulley/platter. VERY rarely touch the belt, the pulley only when I clean it or my belt, and don't touch the platter much either. I don't find it difficult to avoid in general use. Maybe 2-4 times per year I clean my belt/pulley/sides of platter. I do clean the top of my platter much more often, but more related to dust than fingerprints or oil from my skin.
BTW - VPI suggests cleaning platters - at least the older ones like my TNT 5 platter - with Windex, not alcohol (which discolors it). I do use 91% alcohol when I clean my belt (followed by baby powder), the metal sides of my platter, and pulley.

- Hmm, good idea - think I should be using microfiber cloth on metal sides of my platter too. Thanks, Opus. nt - Rick W 08:57:28 09/01/14 (0)
