Yes, I got the KAB EV-1. I am very pleased with the way it works. The only draw back is the mind numbing tedious process of cleaning records by hand. I have about 400 records and I am NOT looking forward to the job.

Well, sounds like the KAB is the way to go to clean so many records since the nitty gritty overheats after 10 records or so.I do have a question, where does the cleaning solution go to after it is cleaned off the LP? I know the attachment keeps it from going into the vacuum, I'm just curious if it goes into the KAB box?
The liquid mostly evaporates. Any additonal is collected in a box.Does anyone have any experience with straight de-natured alcohol?
Another possibility worth exploring is the use of C-4 or it's Eastern
European equivalent semtex to literally blast the crud out of the groove, the biggest problem is the initiation phase of this cleaning procedure as the initiators or blasting caps needed to fire off the Platique will unfortunately trash the record and the table beneath it
perhaps Nano technology will come to the rescue with a microscopic Nano type initiator.
Forming an appropriate cleaning charge small enough to get way down in the groove would also unfortunately be somewhat time consuming as well as tedious proceedure.
Good luck in your courageous re-inventing the wheel ;-)
It works great, but you do need to rent an industrial sand blaster
as a follow up. You might also try some of the more concentarated acids and bases as well.

I indeed read your excellent well thought out post.
Perhaps the Propylene Glycol is the culprit ?On the Bi-polar issue I experimented with Lithium as it
did wonder for my ex ;-)All kidding aside once I started using Disc. Dr. I abandonded
DIY solvents altogether about 6 months later RRL and either is
infinately superior to any DIY at least any I experimented with.Kind Regards FredJ
