A couple of turn table questions

First I was just going to get a Dual 1225 w/o a cartirdge listed for at 1st @ $ 75 and then he lowered it to $60. Now I thought hard about this and then cancelled because even though the Denon DP-11F I have now is entry level there is nothing wrong w/ it and then putting the same used Grado cart I'm using now made no sense. I nixed the deal and they do come up if I decided to go after one at another time.Now something over the weekend that really surprised me was that the cover of the tt w/ a certain lp on would not close right and scrape, before I lowered the arm I raised the cover. This never happened to me before w/ this tt.W/o smashing albums together they appeared to be the same size but it's such a micro amount that I could have missed it so I have no idea what caused that.There does not seem to be any kind of cover adjustment available.
The second question is I use the brush and solution cleaning method.I'm running out of the fluid and the only ingredinent listed is Isopropyl (67-63-00 and nothing else. As a guess it's a form of alcohol but I never heard of this. Is there any bulk suppliers of this, I'd hate to keep getting just the little 1.25 fl oz squeeze bottles. It's called RCA D4+.
Just found this, is this a good alturnative or is there a larger cheaper solution available?

The record cleaning solution is what I use as well. A little bit goes a long ways depending on how many LP's you are playing of course. I bought a 4 pk off of Amazon over 2yrs ago and still have 1 bottle left.
As to the record scraping. Not sure what happened if it wasn't doing it before. I've had a couple different Denon's like yours and also a few Technics that have done the same thing. You could look for a manual at .... I forget the site, sorry. I'm sure MrHardy has linked to it many times in the past. Just do a google search and it will be one of the top sites shown. You have to set up an account to download the manuals, but it is free. There may be an adjustment, but I found it minimal and just lived with the slight scrape when closing the lid.2-ch System: Parasound P/LD 2000 pre, Parasound HCA-1000 amp, Parasound T/DQ Tuner, Phase Technology PC-100 Tower speakers, Technics SL-1600 Turntable, Denon 2910 SACD/CD player, Peachtree DAC iT and X1asynchorus USB converter, HSU VTF-3 subwoofer. -
Befoe yorr repy I looked into something else. It comes in an 8oz bottle and for $18 and change looked like a good deal.I called the place and of course they were out of stock. They will e-mail mail alert me when restocked. I also saw the 4 pack of the same RCA solution from Amazon for $20 which I'm holding off on until some more people chime in or that other stuff comes in. The scraping thing is weird and I just couldn't leave the cover down.
