These record brushes don't cost much and everyone who wants to take care of their records and make sure their stylus lives a long and healthy life must use them.

A carbon fiber record brush is not intended to clean very dirty records. If your record was damaged by water, dirt, grease or other particles you should consider a wet-cleaning - do not use your carbon fiber brush for this.

I highly recommend using a brush before each play. It only takes a few seconds yet offers great results. Even if you bought a brand new vinyl record, chances are it has dust on it from the manufacturer or from the inner sleeve. Most new records are also charged with static and using a brush helps get rid of that static. Result? Instant improvement in the sound quality. Less pops,. less crackles and healthier stylus.

Records should be cleaned with a carbon fiber brush before each play. Even though you might not see any dust, there is probably static (on new and old records alike). The static will attract dust and that's not a good thing.

In this video I am using the Stanton CFB-1 brush:

I also have a cheaper brush that I use on older and records (which are usually a little dirtier):
