This is a normal post Might not shift oily deposits though.
Spray on isopropyl alcohol then dry with compressed air would do it.

This is a normal post Where would the oil go?
It wouldn't evaporate in the IPA

This is a normal post Yeah, you'd need to rinse the record with distilled water to move any contaminants out of the groove.
That said, pure IPA is generally not recommended for cleaning PVC, as it tends to evaporate too quickly to be an effective cleaning agent, can potentially remove chemical additives (plasticizers, protective coatings), and may adversely react with other chemicals (e.g. acetic acid) and damage the material.

There's also the risk of damaging the record's label by applying liquids to it.

This is a normal post If the oil is dissolved in the alcohol the air blasts both off.

This is a normal post One of these is the best way.
They cost a bit initially, but they can make almost dead records come back to life.
