Well, we did have the Cleaning Contest and do stay with my position – a regular wash is all that might be done to a record. I have pretty much the same experiences as I had 7-8 years ago when I was trying to use different cleaning “improvements”. It is like a rule- if an industry offers something beyond a common sense then it is most likely a sham… Anyhow, the Osage  AI System cleaners turned out to be no just bad but dungarees – they affect sound and I was not able to remove the negative effect Osage  did with any of my consequential re-washed – perhaps I need to try a pure alcohol to recover the record. I would not make any assessment about the enzymatic theory – I do not know if it does anything. I however did re-read the Osage site in context of the actual result that I experienced with their AI cleaners and I do not find the Osage views as honorable. I do not know if it is a pure deception on Osage part or they just ignorant and do not know what they are doing but in both of the cases what they offer do devastate sound of the records – unfortunately it looks like permanently.  Now go back to the Wash de Regula…
