It was overdone just a little bit.

Thanks for the heads up on this. Ordered.It’s a concentrate that’s meant to be used with a vacuum machine. It’s made in Ukraine. No idea what’s in it, except that it has no alcohol or fragrance. It’s also the best solution I’ve ever used by a significant margin. Even records I’ve cleaned with other solutions are quieter and sound better with Chisto. One bottle makes one gallon of solution.
It’s normally $49 per bottle. See the link and you can get 2 bottles for $25 with free shipping.
Chisto Easy Groove Concentrate
For record cleaning machines. For all types of records from LPs to ancient 78 RPM shellacs. Quick and convenient way to keep your records at its best.highend-electronics.com
Put it under my sink so my record can stand at an even gallon.I'm really liking the Chisto that I've used so far. It'd be a shame if my cat or kid accidentally knocked over my remaining 1/2 gallon of TTVJ so I wouldn't feel guilty about switching immediately....
My other reasoning is that my TTVJ is occupying the nice gallon jug I bought because my kids kept stepping on and crushing my TTVJ when I stores it in regular gallons. (It was wrapped in a towel in the crawl space)Put it under my sink so my record can stand at an even gallon.
What did you buy if you don't mind me asking? And where? And did you find a sale price somewhere? I'm thinking I want to pull the trigger, and looking at that same unit a lot of people have grabbed here recently, but no deals in the states. Wandering if a holiday sale around soon.I just checked! I think today is the day I take that step for cleaner records.

Cool, thanks!I'd imagine there will be some sales soon but I'd also check your local craigslist/facebook marketplace because of where you live.
I hunted for awhile waiting for sales and whatnot a couple years ago without a lot of luck (I got the Okki, not the VPI like the cool kids). Ultimately I think I just got the standard 15% off from a code or calling Music Direct (I can’t recall which) and put it on my cash back card for the extra 2% on that. Oh, and it came with a free plexi dust cover.Cool, thanks!
Nice. I'll keep my eye open for a couple more weeks. Figured I should at least wait for black friday.I hunted for awhile waiting for sales and whatnot a couple years ago without a lot of luck (I got the Okki, not the VPI like the cool kids).

If you’re seriously considering it, you might hop on ordering that Chisto while it’s still a two-fer. I think @HiFi Guy said that special ends this month - it’s a solid deal. I think I paid double for half as much Todd’s and those small concentrate boxes aren’t exactly going to be in the way.Nice. I'll keep my eye open for a couple more weeks.

So...yeah....might've already done that . I have problems. Exactly as you said, figured it would be worth it if I grab one. And you all are saying how great that stuff is.If you’re seriously considering it, you might hop on ordering that Chisto while it’s still a two-fer.

Hey, saving $25 that could be used on more records to clean later! That’s just good planning.So...yeah....might've already done that . I have problems. Exactly as you said, figured it would be worth it if I grab one. And you all are saying how great that stuff is.

I wonder if they ever figure out why. I know a couple of the ROTM's have found out and been flabbergasted. Well, maybe that's a bit much of a word for it. Just wanted to say it.I hope these businesses appreciate the weird wave of cash that wash over them when these forums get cooking on a product/album/whatever.
I used to joke at the old place that I wondered exactly what the buying power of the forum was. I still kinda wonder.I wonder if they ever figure out why. I know a couple of the ROTM's have found out and been flabbergasted. Well, maybe that's a bit much of a word for it. Just wanted to say it.
