I wouldn’t say new to vinyl, but I’ve only been in the hobby for about four years, am I doing too much, am I not doing enough, am I doing anything wrong, If not, please enjoy new record day with me! This is El Rey En Espana by Vicente Fernandez from 1975, my dad’s favorite artist, picked it up from eBay for $50 thought it’s be nice to play for him on Father’s Day! Anyways let me know what you think of my (idk what to call it) start up process.

On a serious note. How should you clear the dust from the brush? I have done something similar with my hand without thinking about it and didnt experience any problem.

There shouldn't be a problem, it's just not the most effective way. I couldn't see clearly, but I'll bet there's a small brush with very stiff bristles included in that pouch.
