I used to have little cereal prizes that snapped on your spoon for snap, cradkle, and pop, molded as spacemen

I would clean again rather than go down without a fight. As you probably know, the design problem with vacuum cleaning is getting the air velocity just right. Too much power risks accelerating the carrier fluid so quickly that heavier particles that can't accelerate as fast fall out of suspension . perhaps your home brew travels more readily than the OEM stuff, I don't know.

might be time to investigate ultrasonic cleaning, the new state of the art. it has a very successful record in the aerospace industry.

you might also investigate static mitigation. I haven't personally investigated this, but just saw a very effective high end music room video where the owner was using a battery powered electric spark BBQ lighter from amazon and said the plasma worked better than his zero stat gun. when the spark is straight, he knows the static charge is corrected.

of course, the first thing to check is the interface with the needle, mentioned here only for beginners.

all the best with your new records. which ones did you get? I enjoy that stuff so much.
