Cleaning Vinyl Records..with Manship - เพลง
FANTASTIC! Thanks so much John for all the knowledge! SO appreciated!
Best Video Ive seen,, I like that Turntable he uses
This video is so meditative and relaxing ... and I loooove your accent :) Also so nice to see those babys being rescued.
Actually it is very easy to removed stickers from the cover. Take the album out, grab a hair dryer and warm up the sticker. It'll peel off very easily. Have done countless tymes over the years.
I Breathe Slowly on to the Sticker, while Peeling back Very Slowly. Works Better and more Safer than the Dryer.
Thanks John enjoyed watching that
If you don't want your album covers to smell of and potentially get damaged by lighter fluid, you can use a hairdryer instead. Just use it to heat up the sticker a bit and the glue will become soft and you can pull the sticker right off. If there is any residue, then wipe it with a little oil (normal oil for cooking) on a tissue. Oh, remember to remove the record from the cover before you use the hairdryer :-)
Just watched your video and yes I agree the loricraft does do a very good job. Looks like yours needs a service. You had your money's worth well built product and does exactly what it says on the tin 👍👍
Great video Just started listening to Records again pulled out my old collection and found out that someone had put it near a heat source at my old house because a lot of them were melted Thank god My really good records were stored elsewhere my original Woodstock and many more... Thanks for all the tips and Information
I use a good quality paint pad with fine soft bristles and sugar soap solution (good grease remover) and get great result - Would love one of those machines though John.
A warm iron works by loosening up the labels and stickers put on the cover. Make sure it's not too hot and you take the record out first! The lighter fluid is pretty toxic.
I get my labels wet all the time with no ill effects, with one exception: I left the record on a wet surface once for over ten minutes and there were a few dark wet spots on the label. But it dried and you'd never know. I don't scrub the label, though. Heck, I rinse my records under the kitchen sink faucet. The whole thing gets soaked.
I did that for the first time today, I washed 1 of my records in the sink like it was a dirty plate. Worked like a charm and my label so far seems fine and dry.
Washing without distilled water...
@@AsukaLangleyS02 The only time I've ever bothered with distilled water was topping off car batteries back in the 20th century - and cleaning my smoke machine (stage use).
With as much soap as you used in your cleaning solution as evidenced by all the bubble lather, you need to rinse with distilled water after cleaning. Otherwise all that residue will gunk up your stylus!
Play your record while it is wet with water is the best
good work man
And what do you have put at the tip of the arm that does the suction of the liquid after the washing procedure to prevent damage to the vinyl?
I have used every vinyl cleaning method on the planet and D4+ is the best way to go. Simply apply generously to the record and use velvet brush while the record is spinning on the turntable. I use 78RPM. Then use a second velvet brush to dry. Simple>fast>effective. I get the D4 at Parts Express for $3.92 a bottle. Also, before cleaning new records, just use your velvet brush first with no solution. Most of my new ones need no cleaning and are flawless with just using the velvet brush.
I inherited my elder sister’s Grateful Dead album (their first album, 1967) and one side was apparently left out when someone painted white paint using a roller, resulting in tiny drops of paint that dried on the record. I tried to clean it off by washing twice in the Spin Clean. Then was able to flick a few spots off on smooth areas of the record, but not on the playing grooves, and I didn’t was to scratch it further. I researched on-line and found that vinegar should not harm the vinyl, so I used vinegar on a cloth to dab onto the spots, then cleaned again in Spin Clean - paint still there. Someone suggested that carefully applied heat might cause the paint to release. My ex-gf took the blow dryer so I tried heating the album a few seconds at a time in a microwave oven and got it warm. Paint would still not release. I think that the fact this paint might have been on the record for about 50 years made it very hard with no remaining flexibility. Anyone have any other ideas?
I use Tiny drops of Paint Thinners, directly to the top of the drop of Paint. Let this soak In from a minute. Then with a Wooden Tooth Pick dipped In the Thinners, just Gently move It up till It Pops off. Nothing to lose by trying It, has worked me for Years with No Ill affects.
I used wood glue a few times. Just ordinairy watersoluble woodglue. Aply a thin layer, let it dry, peel it of. I was very satisfied with the result. This machine in the video probably does the job better though.
those pricetags come off easy when heated up just a little bit by an lighter, be carefull not to light it on fire, but works every time whithout markings.
Questions: What type of brush was that? Cleaning solution? How did the acetate sound?
I get the records wet and play them backwards. After the needle runs over dirt so many times one way it stays in the grooves no matter what. When i play them backwards while their wet it digs out all the pops and clicks somehow. I made plenty trashed records sound A+ doing that.
I use a paint edger with cheap shampoo/conditioner. I scrub in both directions and if the only problem with a record is that it is dirty, it makes it sound like brand new. It's especially useful with Goodwill finds.
Rob Wells paint edgers work great! I use 80% distilled water, 20% IP Alcohol, then add about 10 drops jet dry in a 24 oz spray bottle as a wash. Also a similar mixture in a rinse bottle minus the jet dry. The paint edger pads are the perfect width to cover the vinyl area of an LP record. I use one edger for the wash and one for the rinse while wiping the record with a soft applicator pad in between. Check out Oddbox Topper on TH-cam. It’s actually his system although he vacuums the water off.
I need to get out to the UK...
Warm water, Dishwashing liquid followed by WD-40 and microfiber cloths works for me.
The record looks newer but not perfect, generally, records are not as clear as CDs but have a warmer sound. Have 30 records 200 CDs. I have a Linn LP-12, 3 Tube PRE-AMP, 8 Tube power AMP, Paradigm tower speakers. High-end CD player.
When Your collection comes up for sale, I'm out. As for Redbook Compressed CD's You can keep them. Modern ones are even Worse, all are now Brickwalled. Nasty.
Warm water with washing up liquid and a soft lint free cloth. Takes half the time and works just as well. Don't put them in the dishwasher, that doesn't work!😂
Why are your UK album's jackets so thin and flimsy?
Make an arm to hold the brush in place with an adjustable force, and walk away.
Why did you not do a "before and after' comparison sound wise (once you cleaned it)?
Just curious😁
Its because sometimes videomakers are stupid, low IQ imbeciles. Not this time, of course, but sometimes.
Hey John, can you tell me what Loricraft Model, Brush and Cleaner you use in this video ?
Analogis clean (Lenco clean) but with Vetril liquid, from 50 years and for the rest of my life !!!
Hi John. I volunteer at a Charity called Julias House in Poole and will e taking over the record section soon. Currently running the CD section, but some of the records we get in are buggered BUT if a bit of time is spent on them I reckon they can be fixed.
But because of my disability in hands and legs it's difficult for me, so do you have any machines that you can recommend buying to do the job? I've only got £50 to spend so.....tight ain't the word.
We get some classics in, early Beatles, Pink Floyd demos etc and because they've been left in garages/lofts etc they are mouldy buggers. Cheers Nick
Just use a hand held hair dryer on the sticker. Use a pair of tweezers or fingernail and gently pull away the sticker a little at a time. Apply heat, pull a little on the sticker, more heat, pull. Repeat as necessary. Of course, remove the record before you do this. The hair dryer will be extremely hot when held close to the cover so watch your finger if you're not using tweezers. I've never found a sticker I can't remove like this. Very rare to damage the cover. If there is glue residue left on the cover after sticker is removed apply heat again, point dryer away and rub with your finger. Repeat as necessary.
a hot iron will loosen the glue on some stickers. old stickers need steam
When you screw on that weight...doesn't it mark up the spindle from the threading or what ever is being used to grab on to the spindle to be tighten on? I am not a fan of record cleaners cause i had several bought used lp's that have been cleaned and i see water marks on the record in the dead wax areas the most that i had to wipe with a soft tv screen cloth or nonabrasive cd wipe cloth. I would even hear rice krispies cereal through out the album from it being cleaned.
Sounds like some uneducated previous owner used tap water on these records. The mineral deposits in the groove are hard to remove.
Hi. What is the brush you're using please?
John, how much are those machines?
Would have loved a sound sample after the cleaning
Thierry Jean yes
Where do you get that brush?
How soft is the brush?
Ehi John, give us the liquid recipe. please!!!
*Don't touch the grooves!* (Even if you're gonna wash them).
Not a problem if you use a goat's hair brush. You will need to get into the grooves if you want really clean records.
So agree. Rog. Pacific sunset records
Beast way i clean records dishsoap on vinyl sread it around plush it with running water from sink drip dry polish with oft rag
NO!!! Dish soap leaves a residue that actually eats away at your records!!!!
I never use tap water. The mineral deposits it leaves deep in the groove are almost impossible to get rid of.
Hi hi John 🌹 velvet🌈🎄
There are enzymatic cleaning that are organic , non-chemical which will address things mold spores very effectively. Also rather than put that filthy record on your machine which will spread the dirt to all your other records, before doing that, rinse the record in distilled water. then with all that junk rinsed off your machine will work much better.
Garuge I like 👍
Please tell me where you got that record clamp for you're cleaning machine.I have looked online for 2 years trying to find one that is the same size as the lable and can't find one.
ClearAudio . About £130...turntableworld.co.uk
You can use lighter fluid to get those stickers off. Just don't use it on anything that is oil based that the lighter fluid will take off.
Start at 7:00
I have dropped an old 78 record(was my Mum's) and it cracked...CAN I glue it back together again???
you can do what ever you please Jennifer :)
Use some (lightly) UN-DU and Goo Gone to remove the stickers off of the jackets. Your bending the flimsy thin jacket at 2:08 and on. I will not use any brush on my lp's due to them lightly scratching the shit out of vinyl's surface. Your not putting the liquid all the way to the locked groove. Here we go with the tissue again. He dries one side and put's the lp down on top of a record jacket without drying the other side.
Look up the WD-40 cleaning method it’s absolutely brilliant and works, no need for all this !
I want one of these machines but the loricraft record cleaning machine cost over a grand Bummer
You can get an Okki Nokki for around £400
Mi grandad was a record collector born in the 1800s, kid you not, and from the very beginning of the existence of said things he bought and collected them. But he used to tell of how he'd been told once , farther south, 90 miles off Key West , to use rum to clean them instead. And often with great sadness he would tell new record collectors he'd meet of how because of blindly heeding to such crazy advice his most valued possessions got wrecked, and how much the fastest his rag, like that cloth of yours got on the account of you trying to use alcohol to make better the record you said you had bought in where... Miami?. Did you know of grandpa Stewart at all by any chance? ...Shema!!!
Try using a hair dryer with the record removed - to remove the sticky tags..
John McBarron
Put it in a freezer.
If I saw a record like that in bad condition I would not. Where are sleeves for the? It looks like it's just the cover with the record in it with no sleeves.
ultrasonics machines will save you alot of effort
I would not use any tissue except for a white non abrasive cd wipe cloth. I would be afraid to use that brush. It might lightly scratch up the surface of the record, including in the dead wax where the lead in and out grooves are.
You do know that a diamond is used to play records, right?
If it is a goat's hair brush, it won't do any damage. Goat's hair is soft enough to caress yet stiff enough to clean.
@@dang2443 Yea! What does that have to do with my comment? Playing a record is different than wiping it.
@@svenschwingel8632 Still, i don't trust anything but a nonabrasive cd wipe cloth that came with the Memorex cd cleaner kits.
Use Sleves without PVC .
Anything chemical ruins a "acetate" record? It all depends on the chemicals involved. For example, you can use isopropanol/ethanol on any vinyl record for basic cleaning. Just don't use acetone, paint thinner etc.
Just look up the material of the record and the chemical you want to use to clean it.
read somewhere on the internet that depending on the Acetate material it may be very detrimental to introduce any water content to Acetates as some types actually absorb water and can cause a reaction between the Acetate and the metal platter beneath this can cause spalling / flaking of the playing surface
which then is unrecoverable.....
Nitrocellulose acetate decomposes continuously and over time
reacts with water vapour or oxygen to produce acids that act as
a catalyst for several other chemical reactions such as the
release of palmitic acid, a white waxy substance. As with most
chemical reactions, these reactions are accelerated with
elevated temperature and humidity levels.
Sooo. . . got a few records do ya.
God after all that dont get to hear what it sounds like cleaned
What are the specifications of that brush?
Countless bristles attached to a spine.
Hope that helps.
Impressive results!!! too bad this machine costs a GAZILLION BUCKS.... which makes that we (music people) will keep on making records dirty, and you (record salesman) have to make them clean again. I love simple structures...
He has staff to do that job, John spends most of his time digging for and listening to records, watching his football team winning and fishing... Paul
I use baby wipes.
XD XD XD well why not...IF it destroys your records, I would reconsider using them on a baby anyways XD
@@_chabella_ You and OP = Tards
Is it better to use 91% rubbing alcohol (Isopropyl), mixed with distilled water and dishwasher finisher, like many American vinyl collectors advise? They seem to think ordinary water and soap causes damage. That said, I can't find rubbing alcohol or distilled water in our shops.
You can pick up distilled water at Halfords or any car spares shop and any chemist will sell surgical spirit which is the same as "rubbing alcohol
Oldsoulboy - thanks, not tried Halfords, will look there. I did try some similar places, but they only sold deionised water which is different, not as pure as as distilled. I'll try chemists again and ask for rubbing alcohol this time. Cheers :)
That is quite weird, here in Spain even the smallest village supermarked has distilled water and rubbing alcohol for sale.
@@1312_PV Same in USA
garage
There's no way that street people LP is worth $35. Maybe the test pressing....
25 pounds of what??
TRy goo gone for getting stickers off
stacked flat? nope ;)
just soak the label in white spirit should come easily clean it up with a cloth soaked in white spirit
Stop touching the records it's making me stressed
go and have a smoke, calm down... ;)
Looks like those records are vinyl, not *acetate.* I guess acetate records ceased to sell a few years after WWII. You don't look that old to have been acquainted with *acetate* records. I'm older than you and all I saw was *vinyl* even in the early 60's.

İt does not help
I washed a record and played side 1 and this video is still playing. 😕
Jesus when does the fucking record cleaning start? 5 minutes in and it's still just gab gab gab
NEVER USE SOAP ON YOUR RECORDS!!! People please!!! It leaves residue and actually eats away your records!
07:10 thanks me later :D
Oooft 23 mins long,I'd rather listen to scratched records
Vinyls?? I'd think you'd be old enough t know better! They're records, not vinyls and the plural of vinyl is still, "vinyl'. And sticking your finger prints all over the playing surface isn't helping at all, either.
