RE: good luck with that

I used to live in an area where the tap water would leave minerals traces all over the record surface.

Now here where we live it doesn't seem bad at all. But I don't take any chance and stick with warm distilled water applied with a microfiber cloth, followed by vacuuming. One out of two times though this is not enough with very old and crummy records - sometimes looking very pristine and all, but the previous owner had obviously played them with a dirty stylus... Or maybe the guy smoked a pipe all the time! Then I use some soap-based solution, followed by a rinse under tap, followed by the distilled water routine.
