 What do you guys use to get rid of all that surface dust  that causes minor pops and crackles? Also do you use  something different for getting out that random crap thats  stuck in the grooves, you know the stuff that isn't really  loose but its caked on somehow.

time to be fun-knee, a lighter
  the pop and crackels you hear, thats the VINYL talking, its  good
 
  to get rid of dust i ueually just use a clean shirt,rubbing  it in i acircular motion, probably clock wise

i bought some liquid stuff down at my local record  store...the old guy working there said he home makes it, he  also gave me a super soft bit of cloth and demonstrated how  to clean the record in a circular motion. I think its just  isopropanol and distilled water.

i've never found a cleaning system that did anything but  increase surface noise (cleaning fluid and soft lint free  cloth or specialized brush).  i use compressed air to clean  before playing and am very careful about exposure to dust,  etc.  however the fact that vinyl is frequently charged with  static means that it will suck up whatever's in the air.   better to learn to appreciate the random sizzle and  crackle...
