Does anybody have an effective method for doing this?
have a method which worked for me couple of times.
first thing:you need spring or summer (big sun and no clouds).so you are lucky now
second:you need two pieces of glass ( the best are fat ones - 6mm or more )
if you have both then put one piece of glass on the ground on big sun then a record on it...and wait couple of minutes when it will be warm enough...then reverse record on other side and wait little...then put a second glass on vinyl and wait again...you have to be sure that the record is warm enough...then put your hands and knees on the corners of glass to press it well and wait enough to repair record...
thats all.
it worked for me and i repaired couple of my records that were totally unplayable.
i hope i helped you. ;)
Iron them. :)
put it in the airing cupboard for two days with a heavy book on top. safest method
Two pains of glass and some brown paper.
You can borrow my mother.....
She can sit on it for a while....
thats how I usually do it...
nah seriously... getting a new copy probably works best...
just sell the old one on ebay, you probably loose some money but at least you dont have to start ironing and sh*t...
great advice lau
con someone into buying your dodgy copy, then buy a new one!
:o)
place the record flat over a hot mug of water
get it centralised
leave it............leave it..............no peeping
I SAID NO PEEPING !!!!
then after 5 mins turn it over
after not peeping for ten minutes, lie it flat ( on turntable )
hope for the best
:paranoid:
are you allowed to put in a tea bag or coffee, so that way you can enjoy a nice brew, even if you've still got a warped record
if you put some herbal teabags in you could have a lovely smelling record.
I'm not quite sure what an airing cupboard is? Is it meant to be warm in there?Quote:
