RaoulJuke Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 what size have you got for the records thanks 6.5Litre. This is enough to have half the record always submerged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BioBa Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I had this one (su-767) for a couple of years. It has been excellent and large enough for anything i had to do. The stainless steel ones of similar size are more expensive. This one has stainless steel internals and an inbuilt heater.

ocyen Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 @wiredoug how much auto degreaser or what ratio do you use in your ultrasonic cleaner? Be careful not to use a liquid with too low a flash point, as the liquid will heat up as it gets sonicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaoulJuke Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I use 1 part isopropyl alcohol and 2 part distilled water. If I am cleaning at high temp over a period of time I will top up the iso as I go Sent from my iPad using Aussie Arcade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny65 Posted December 6, 2017 Author Share Posted December 6, 2017 Be careful not to use a liquid with too low a flash point, as the liquid will heat up as it gets sonicated. Thanks Alex. So is there any way to find out the flash point on a product (I assume they won't have this on the label or will they)? And what is considered too low?

And what is considered too low? It will be listed on the MSDS which you can usually download from the manufacturer's website. No need to worry too much about it, just don't leave it unattended for long periods :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaoulJuke Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 yeah sounds like a waste of good IPA @RaoulJuke try warm degreaser then rinse in plain hot water Hey @wiredoug - would CLR do the trick as a degreaser? Or would that be too hardcore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiredoug Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Hey @wiredoug - would CLR do the trick as a degreaser? Or would that be too hardcore? i dont know ... try it. or why not just buy degreaser? alll i can tell you is some brands leave a salt on the metal parts so rinse them quick in hot water when you're done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
