How To Use Wax Wash Step 1. Place your vinyl record on a flat, clean, lint-free surface. Remove any dust from the surface of your record using a carbon-fibre brush. Step 2. Coat the surface of Side A of your record in Wax Wash, ensuring that the label is well protected. Once coated, allow the record to sit for 10-15 seconds to ensure that the Wax Wash infiltrates the grooves. Step 3. Using one of lint-free cloths provided, clean the record in an anti-clockwise direction from the centre to the edge. Then, in a clockwise direction from the edge to the centre. Repeat the process using the second lint-free cloth until record surface is dry and sparkling. Step 4. Repeat the process in Step 3 on Side B of the record. Once completed listen to the record. If there is still noticeable popping, crackling or hissing, repeat steps 2-4.
