Vinyl disc cleaning kit
The American Recorder Technologies VDC-120 is a dedicated wet-format cleaning system for vinyl records. It targets DJs and collectors who want to remove dust and debris from micro grooves before playback. The kit combines a SOFTEX brush with a proprietary cleaning fluid for thorough surface care. A stylus brush is also supplied to keep the needle free of contamination.
SOFTEX brush for micro grooves
The single specification that decides fit is the SOFTEX brush, which is designed to reach into the record's micro grooves. Wet-format cleaning with the included ULTRAPURE fluid dissolves grime that dry brushes cannot lift. No other brush type or fluid formulation is supplied in this package. Buyers who need a dry carbon-fibre brush or a vacuum-based machine should look elsewhere.
Simple manual operation
Apply the ULTRAPURE fluid to the record surface, then sweep the SOFTEX brush along the grooves to lift residue. Use the small stylus brush to gently clean the needle tip from back to front. The kit weighs 0.2 units and contains no powered parts, so no setup or calibration is required. Take care not to oversaturate the label area when applying fluid.
