Thank You…
Cleaning an original Elvis Presley fun in Acapulco record. Hear the results.
Thanks for watching and stay safe. 
Hello Ed, you better not use "alcohol" in the 50/50 mix. Distilled water on a temp. of 40 degrees in a mix of 70% water and 30% "alcohol" is safer for the subtile recordgrooves. After sufficient cleaning I use anti dust spray for tabletscreens. Also safe is the use of very little sprayed WD40 and drying it wirh a very soft piece of cloth, and a bit diagonal, so not direct in the groovedirection, and back to the beginning of the record. My experience of recordcleaning is only 60 years.
previous owner got a bit sloppy on ownership of the lp. I've been getting lps from the 60s in mint condition in Japan. Japan were big Elvis fans
Something you may consider adding to your solutions is just a couple small drops of Dawn dish soap. works wonders with things like Finger prints and extremely dirty records and used by the Hall of fame on there archives.
Hi Ed great album of elvis fun in acapulco sound ok hope you have fun play this great album keep cool video my friend
What I do with my cleaning solution of alcohol and distilled water is add some Wndex class cleaner. The Windex has ammonia in it and it helps cut the oil in the finger prints and helps get them off the records. I just add enough to get a blue hue in the solution and that seems to be enough to do the job. I also have a VPI record cleaning machine it works great. Also a few drops of photo flow help s the solution penetrates the grooves better for better cleaning.
I use 80% destilled water, 20% Isoprop and a few drops photo flew in a self-built ultrasonic mashine, than drying with 'microfaser-Tücher' - works fine - best wishes, take care
Ed seeing your video reminds that's why I traded all my vinyl over 30 year's ago !
But of course, this should be the exception to the rule. It beggers belief what some people do with stuff.
Power cleaner.( Mold remover) Record cleaning fluid (no alcohol) Record preservative fluid. Record cleaning machine.
It isn't spinning fast enough, I use dermassage dishwashing liquid which has a degreaser, Luke warm water and a sponge and it works really well Ed.
That was a damn good album I loved every song on it it probably does need a little bit more cleaning not bad Ed you take care and God bless
Well, one thing I've learned: I definitely don't like the mono mix of "Fun In Acapulco." LOL!
Your cleaning did do some good but those finger marks!! Love the vaccuum cleaner machine you have though!!
I was in a record shop last week, a guy there was cleaning a record. My friend asked him what he used he replied vegtable oil.
???!!!
One place to avoid then. Of course it would become obvious when cleaning with water at a later date.
Shocking
Sounds a lot better than it did
very good
Looks great after the cleaning.
Sorry Ed but you should only use fairy liquid and distilled water. No alcohol at all, as it eats away your vinyl. Go and see cleaning vinyl records John Manship. The LP did sound a little better after your clean Ed.
The acid in the fingers will eat into the vinyl I would think
good job Ed you might get it clean a little bit more but you have few scuff markings on the lp but still dont sound all that bad
Hi from England
Ed
There is some improvement. Perhaps if you revisit this procedure a few times over who knows?
Regarding the fingerprint thing maybe if you know someone who has had previous experience scientifically with finger prints (i mean the LAW or similar occupation) they may be able to advise you.
😊😊😊😍😍🌹🌹
Much better sounding after cleaning, really enjoy your vids.
Thanks. 👍
Great find ed I am listening to Elvis Presley blue Hawaii cd
Oh Ed it's so funny to watching your cleaning but I can't hearingsome sorry about 😢😅😂🤔😞🙏❤️thank you 🙄
That’s weird that your cleaning this album because I just placed a bid on one on eBay.
Have you tried putting it in the dishwasher 😅
I love acalpulco such a good movie
I think I will give that a go on mine
Hey Ed, I think that the cleaning did a lot actually. I'd say most of the remaining noise came from the LP's condition rather than dirt. Take care...
I use a cleaner , actually it’s a groove cleaner that I buy at my local record shop and it’s amazing on my records, although I have multiple copies of each album most of them are in awesome shape anyway. Nice try.
NOBODY should let an Elvis album get in a 💩 condition like this. 😡 😊
Wait till you see the condition of the album in my next video…
