- bediger4000 5y agoHa ha you make joke. DiscWasher was a popular LP cleaner in the 1970s. There was a fibrous cleaning pad attached to a handle, and some special fluid that came in a small eyedrops-style squeeze bottle. The fluid was the expensive part, $5 for one or two fluid ounces, quite expensive for the day. You'd carefully squeeze out a drop of magic fluid on the cleaning pad, and while your LP was spinning, let the cleaning pad drag over the surface of the LP. Turns out the $5/oz ($40 a cup!) special DiscWasher fluid was distilled water. Lawsuits and hilarity followed! This epic tale of audiophile gullibility is not even on the Internet, it appears. The past is dead.
- greedo 5y agoOh I owned one. Never knew the contents of the squeeze bottle. The brush itself was well made, and seemed to clean my LPs pretty well. I never bought a refill, and I think the Dishwasher was a gift. Mine was made of nice wood with the cleaning pad attached and a hollow to hold the squeeze bottle.
