Any heavy duty, acetone, type solvent. and i've learned this the hard way, will remove plenty of desired vinyl surface with it.
I've never tried a little lighter fluid. I like the idea of a rubber eraser.
As far as real record cleaning products.. i'm thinking that Disc Doctor's Miracle Cleaner.. undiluted would be your best bet. I have a tone, if you wanted to try a sample out.. Lemme know.
Honestly p*sses me off that shop owners are that obtuse about this stuff. I know we're a somewhat dedicated, obsessive group, but how hard is it to respect the grooves? I've seen too many ding dongs laying their greasy fingers all over the playing surface when handling them, too many guys dedicated to vodka cleaning techniques.. but a greased pencil near or on the playing surface? How 'bout a price gun dummy?
