Might be a quart bottle.
You had mentioned that this is a CA liquid. It isn't. Although Record Time has good reviews it doesn't have the reviews of the CA Pure Groove Fluid.

I am dissapointed that this isn't available here in N/A.

If anyone has ever found the actual Clear Audio liquid in North America, please let me know.

Thank-you.

Ivan. I apprecaite that link and the time it took to research that for me. That was very nice.

The problem with this item at that location is that he takes the fluid in concentrate and mixes it with water he sourced and sticks it into fake Clearaudio bottles.

As you can see from the pic, the liquid he is selling is murky.

The actual Clear Audio liquid you received with your Double Matrix, the fluid is fully transparent.

I have been using my double matrix for a day or so.

One thing that upsets me is the anti static arm. I just took a pristine copy of Born in the USA and cleaned it. Looked at both sides under the light. Perfect. No surface marks. Put it back on the double matrix. Moved the anti static arm into place and let the unit do 1 revolution. Moved the anti static arm back and removed the record. It appears that the movement of dragging the arm across the record has now scratched the surface of the record.

Unbelievable!!! The arm should separate like the cleaner arm so this doesn't happen.

Anyone else notice this?

I bought mine on eBay a seller from England

It is banned in the North America because it is flammable.

I have no clue why I can buy it from England.

I bought 2 bottles at a time got that in less than a week

Pure groove is alcohol and the other made by musical surroundings is enzyme based

I haven't use the pure groove yet I wait until my tank is empty.

In terms of applying the fluid, I just pump it easy so it won't drip.

Yes, it still pops on damaged vinyls but it does clean.

Keep them in my fridge.

I paid $4000 for my cleaner. I am nuts and so as you! We care about details and that is nothing wrong about it

Enjoy!!


Chris

The fluid should arrive soon.

I am also noticing tons of the liquid dripping from the underside of the unit (the platter facing the ground) and it is dripping on the aluminum body and I have to wipe it up.

I read about that issue prior to purchasing. Anyone else have this issue?
