Revolv Goat's Hair Record Cleaning Brush

I bought this to use with my LP vacuum cleaning machine. This brush works better than the standard velvet brush that came with the cleaning machine. At first, I was a bit worried that the bristles could damage the LP, but the bristles soften up just the right amount when they soak up a bit of cleaning fluid. Running the brush gently along the grooves, it does a great job of deep cleaning the LPs.

I received my first Revolv brush with my Okki Nokki and have cleaned at least 1,000 records with that brush. I ordered another one to replace my original. This brush is built to last. Early on there is a little shedding of loose bristles but this ends after cleaning a few records. Over time three of the hair clusters did fall out, but this happened between 500 and 700 records. I like this brush over others because the bristles on the Revolv are soft yet are stiff enough to put a little pressure to clean. I have used this brush to clean very dirty records and records that are clean but I was looking to improve sound.

This goat's hair brush is semi-stiff and does shed some hair, but not a lot. I use it for "wet cleaning" of my LPs. It works really well and leaves my records clean. It's as good as the $40 alternative at 1/3 the price. I would recommend this goat's hair brush to a friend. The reason why I gave it 4 stars and not 5 stars, is because it does shed some. After a "wet cleaning," i follow-up with a microfiber towel and clean my records up. It does a great job at cleaning records. The package does NOT state where the brush was made.

it works but overpriced and your always cleaning up goat hairs...get a synthetic brush that does the same thing..i wont buy this again..it does work cleaning but i wonder how much damage you do too brush the hairs off at an angle to get it off the record if you dont have a record cleaning machine

This Brush appears to be the same brush that Okki Nokki ships with their Record Cleaning Machine and sells elswhere for twice the price. But it is odd on the same website they sell this one too for half the price. I'm sorry but Okki doesn't make the Brush they get it from a third part manufacturer. I'm pretty sure they are the same or very close, anyway I've been very pleased with this Brush from Revolv. I have not had issues with the Hairs falling out. With any natural brush after some use some of the hairs will slip forward in the brush. A tip for avoiding that problem is when you begin to see the tips of hair sticking out from the brush simply trim the off with scissors. I like this brush from Revolv that I'm buying a second one since my Vinyl collection continues to grow and I clean all of them, even the Brand New Albums which is always recommended.I've attached a photo showing the Brush that shipped with my Pro-Ject Record Cleaner (sells for $39.00) and the Revolv. The Revolv is after 100+ cleanings.

I use this brush to spread Tergitol before cleaning with distilled water rinse with my vacuum RCM. Works flawlessly spreading the surfactant/water combo and is able to get it down into the grooves without damaging the record.

I was already slightly skeptical about this brush since a lot of the stuff on amazon tends to be shams, but I was in need of brushes to experiment with cleaning records, and this thing right out of the package is already shedding goat hairs all over the place. Even after trying to let all the loose hairs out, it just kept shedding and shedding. If you try to brush anything off of your records using this brush you're going to end up with a bunch of bristles within the groove and in other words a pain to get rid of.I repeat do not bother and look for something else.

To clean records, I first use the brush to apply lukewarm water to the record surface, keeping the brush stationary while spinning the record about 3 times in each direction. Then I spray on a vinyl record cleaning solution and brush the surface again. I let it sit for 2-3 minutes, brush again, then wipe with a clean foam brush and distilled water. I remove the water with a vinyl vacuum. Most surface noise is eliminated and the sound is richer. This method has rescued many albums bought at thrift stores and used record bins. I also use an anti-static brush when the record is dry.
