A foreign particle embedded in the groove generally causes permanent
damage. If it is somehow dislodged then the groove is left with a
dimple which will make a less drastic "tick" so there can be some
improvement.


How about grunge noise rather than tics?


I would file grunge under the adhering category, able to be washed out.

So you think a cotton ball is better suited to get down in the grooves
than disk doctor brushes?


No, I've never tried wet brushing. I've had decent results with the
cotton and I do it so rarely that I haven't felt compelled to buy other
products. The only records I've had to wash come from flea markets or
friends basements, so theres little financial justification.
