Russ Andrews Launch New Vinyl Accessories

December 8, 2020

Russ Andrews is expanding its range of accessories for vinyl with the launch of two new cleaning brushes designed to keep records and styli in top condition.

The Groove Cleaner

The Groove Cleaner Brush features ultra-fine high-density bristles to get right into the grooves and remove the unwanted dust and hairs from a record. The 50-micron nylon bristles are thinner than a human hair and chemically inert, making them suitable for use with record cleaning fluids for even better results.

Stylus Super Clean

The second new product is the Stylus Super Clean brush, which uses extremely densely packed bristles to offer gentle stylus cleaning without creating static that can attract more dust. The nylon brush can be used dry but is more effective when partnered with the Russ Andrews TipTonic stylus cleaning fluid.

TipTonic is a specially blended solution for gently removing the hard, baked-on deposits that accumulate on the tip of the stylus. Used regularly, Russ Andrews say it can help restore the sound and prolongs the life of both the stylus and records.

Russ Andrews, chairman of the company and a big user of vinyl, says ‘Keeping records and the stylus clean is one of the simplest and most effective ways of improving sound quality and musical enjoyment. I have used a huge variety of different brushes over the years, as we all have, and can say the results from the Groove Cleaner and Stylus Super Clean are by far the best I’ve seen at the price. I would thoroughly recommend these products to any fans of vinyl.’
