TURGIKLEEN is a proprietary blended Tergitol formula ideal for cleaning your vintage vinyl albums. It is based on record cleaning solutions that have been time-tested for over 30 years by major archival institutions such as the Library of Congress. It is used in very dilute form as a detergent surfactant that provides superior cleaning, with no known known damage. Its superior wetting quality goes to work immediately to loosen dust, cigarette smoke residue, molds and waxes typical of records that have not been maintained in clean condition.

Protect your stylus, cartridge, and album collection by only playing them when they are perfectly clean. Dust your records before each play, to avoid damage to your record collection. TURGI•KLEEN will eliminate what shouldn't be there, but will not repair groove damage. There is no miracle cure for damage. Our product will leave no surface noise in cleaned grooves.

TURGI*KLEEN may be used manually or with record cleaning machines. Do not use full strength; add 10-20 drops to a gallon of distilled water or 3-5 drops to a quart of distilled water. Makes 30 gallons.

The solution must be rinsed off with distilled water, done easily with a spray bottle or garden pressure spray gallon tank. See included product instruction sheet for details and how-to videos.
