Offered again for 2018
I will wash in my US*, scrub on my platter with Discdoc brushes and rinse/ vac clean as a final step prior to destat treatment and a re sleeve. Damaged LPs can not be fixed but dirty ones can at times have miraculous results.
I will do 5 LPs for $30 and cover return media mail shipping.
Depending on how many (if any) people take me up on this and send AK/VOA money I will schedule a time for LPs to be sent so I can do a marathon cleaning and get all done at once. Since the holidays are close I will leave this offer open until 12/17/17 (now open until 12/22/18) at midnight local to me time (California). LPs will be sent to me after xmas and returned within about 10 days (that is when I will send, when USPS gets them to you YMMV).
I am going to limit this to five sets of 5 or 25 LPs total (I can do 28 in a day, so I suppose a couple extra are possible).
I can not promise your LPs will be made 100% better as some times it is groove wear or damage. But they will come back 100% clean and if dirt (even stubborn, embedded dirt) was noisy that will be fixed. Occasionally very stubborn fingerprints will remain slightly visible no matter how hard I try. I believe the vinyl gets stained BWDIK?
Most of the time very shiny, glossy vinyl will be returned to you and hopefully a marked improvement in SQ.
*A 12-15 minute soak in 40° C distilled with 1:1000 Tergitol, 1:1000 ReSurge and a couple drops of Dawn. Hand wash is 1:400 Tergitol, rinse is 100% distilled warm water via a pressurized hand sprayer (40PSI) and a 5HP shopvac for final stage. Then air dried for 1 hour or more, de stat with Thunderon brush and sleeved in HQ poly inners and Outers.
