Cleaning with woods glue?

I saw this method on Youtube and decided to see what it would practise. I picked a sacrificial victim and plant my results were less that stellar. It may have been my methods equally I applied the mucilage belatedly at nighttime and was not able to get back to it until the following evening. I constitute that it had get very brittle and did not pull off in i canvass like the videos. I spent the better part of the next two hours picking off pieces of glue and some I had to rewet the glue to soften it and wash it away. I too found that it did sound a trivial better, information technology wasn't worth the endeavor.
Can I assume I left the glue besides much fourth dimension to dry?
I don't see a lot of discussion on this hither, and then I assume not many have tried this?

Before I went the ultrasonic way, I used to make clean the records which played with a lot of popular and click with wood mucilage. I used Titebond 2 which dries more speedily and is for indoor utilise. If y'all choose to do it again, you will need an erstwhile turntable that still rotates(stylus, cartridge and tonearm not needed!).
Place the record on the tabular array and turn information technology on. Get-go squeezing the glue from lead in groove towards the middle creating glue lines in circles spiraling in towards the center. Make sure that you stay about one-half an inch outside the label and don't get whatever gum on it. Go along a moisture towel handy to wipe away whatsoever accidental glue on the label immediately. Now, while the table is withal turning use an old credit menu holding information technology at an bending and evenly spread the glue to comprehend the tape surface. You will know that you need more glue if you can still see the black of the vinyl surface. The glue should completely cover the surface of record - no black parts should exist visible. It should be i continuous layer of glue - no lakes and islands! Now plow the table off and allow it set up and dry. Go out it overnight preferably for more than than 12 hours. When it is completely dry y'all'll be able to meet the black surface of the vinyl. Tease the dried glue at the outer rim of the record with a blunt knife. Do not insert anything precipitous under the glue layer in an effort to lift it! The record will be ruined! Once you have one finger breadth of glue layer lifted pinch it and with one continuous and smooth motion pull the whole dried glue layer apart from the record surface. Yous will see a very dainty impression of the grooves on the mucilage. Immediately wipe the surface of the record using a microfiber textile that is dampened with either distilled water or deionized water. Your record should now be set up to play. Play first using 1 of your less expensive cartridges in case the stylus is still able to lift off some residuum mucilage in the grooves. You'll notice that pops and clicks have reduced somewhat and this depends upon how dirty your tape was to begin with. Repeat the aforementioned process on the other side of the tape.
Hope this helps. At that place is a lot of give-and-take in the forums regarding the pros and cons of using wood glue to clean records. Familiarize yourself with all aspects before you embark upon cleaning a bunch of records with wood mucilage. Happy listening!

The subject was discussed before in here and shows conspicuously that the woodglue method works very nice.

It works somewhat similar to a production named "disco-film" what was very popular decades ago and but was discontinued when cd'southward came in common and is now bachelor again.

The disadvantage of both of this methods is the need of a lot of time, since the glue must dry at least overnight, ameliorate for a whole day.

For myself, i cleaned a lot my records with this method and i am very pleased with the event, better than having the records washed with a professional person machine at a hifi-dealer who offers this.

Heres a link to an before thred almost this:

The concept certainly fabricated a lot of sense to the Empire Scientific Corporation, makers of fine cartridges. That's why they brought out Discofilm in 70s which was their patented product. Tape Revirginizer is an Australian product which also uses the aforementioned method.
