I've been hitting up the thrift stores over the past few days and I've picked up quite a few old records. A lot of classical stuff (I'll post another thread later detailing my finds).
While sorting through the records at the thrift stores I was assaulted by the stench of mildew, which I happen to be allergic to... uke:
However, I can deal with it while shopping... it's worth it in the end.
Now that I've got them home, I can unfortunately still smell a strong mildew smell coming off of them (some are worse than others), which is upsetting my allergies.
Does anyone know a good way to clean the record jackets without damaging them? I am ordering some new inner sleeves to put the lps in after I clean them, so that will probably help. But as far as I can tell the mildew smell is coming from the outer jackets.
