Safely clean your 78 rpm shellac records with Clearaudio Pure Groove Shellac. Suitable for machine or manual cleaning. Read more.
The Clearaudio Pure Groove Shellac 78 rpm is a powerful cleaning solution designed specifically for vintage 78 rpm shellac records. Shellac is sensitive to solvents found in standard vinyl cleaners, making it essential to use only specially formulated fluids. With Pure Groove Shellac, you protect your valuable collection and preserve its authentic sound.
For best results, use this fluid with a Clearaudio record cleaning machine, such as the Clearaudio Smart Matrix Professional or Double Matrix Professional Sonic. Apply a thin layer, spread evenly with a soft brush, and allow the record to rotate for approximately 30 seconds. The fluid penetrates deep into the grooves, removing dirt and dust effectively. For heavily soiled records, a second application may be required.
If you don’t own a record cleaning machine, you can clean manually on your turntable. After applying, gently wipe the fluid away with a lint-free cloth, repeat if needed, and rinse with distilled water. Let the record dry completely before playback. Clearaudio Pure Groove Shellac extends the lifespan and sound quality of your shellac records.
