Vintage Record Shop Owner Invented Gramaphone Record Cleaner

A vintage record shop owner has been using a gramaphone record cleaner he invented for cleaning customers vinyl records. The neat device make use of centrifugal force to spin dry the record. The screwed on clamp also prevents the paper record label from getting wet. Centrifugal force keeps water and liquid from reaching the label. The cleaning process used distilled water and sendiment free detergent. A paint brush is used to gently nudge free dirt from the record grooves. Centrifugal force than disperse them to the sides of the record cleaner. The end result is record that is cleaned and dry. For optimal dryness the cleaned record is left on a record rack to further air dry. The record cleaner is also on sale at the shop for customers to clean their own record. It is not know if the Singaporean inventor has bother to patent his record cleaner.
