RE: Record brush recs again

" The truth is you really don't need to get every spec of dust off. Just wet clean or use an ultrasonic and dry. "

That is fine for cleaning a disc but brushing before play is not really about cleaning but just preening the disc before and after play. That is removing any light particles ( dust etc) that may have fallen on the record during play or since the last ultrasonic or other RCM cleaning. It is unusual to need to clean ultrasonically more than once and certainly not every time that the record is removed from its sleeve or every time it is turned over which is when light contamination occurs (dust from air, picked up from turntable mat etc). You need a brush for the latter.
