   Hi,   
      
   Isoproprly alcohol is easily available on your drugstore shelf (it is in   
   the u.s. anyway). It's relatively cheap. Do not use it full strength on   
   your records. Dilute it by about 25% (3 parts alcohol to 1 part   
   distilled water) in a spray bottle. Spray a small amount on your record   
   before playing and wipe off using a disc cleaning pad or lint free   
   record cloth (still available at your local radio shack store). Never   
   saturate disc, or put disc away damp or wet.   
      
   Never use any alcohol or solvent cleaner on old 78 rpm discs. It will   
   destroy them.   
      
   Some collectors might disagree with my formula, but I've been doing this   
   for years and I've never had a problem when using it sparingly. The   
   trick is to keep your discs in protective mylar slips to keep dust, dirt   
   and smoke (if you smoke) out of your records. Always handle them by the   
   edges, and avoid finger contact with the grooves. Never wipe against the   
   grain of your record grooves. Clean with pad or cloth WITH the grooves.   
   Doing this, you shold not need to apply cleaner very often. Also using a   
   turntable mat helps, as well as keeping you dust cover down when   
   turntable is not in use.   
      
   I hope I haven't given you too much info here...lol. But I figured if   
   you needed info on Isoprpryl, you would probably find the rest of this   
   info useful too. I don't mean to assume that you are not educated on   
   such things...I'm just trying to be helpful.
