Help me clean and restore my vinyl collection


Hello everyone. The time has come for me to start spinning my vinyl collection after a very long hiatus but I have some work cut out for me. I plan on cleaning and re-sleeving my entire collection (yikes!) and need some comments on what is the latest offerings out there as far as record rice paper sleeves, cleaning machines/solutions and vinyl jackets. I was brought up on vinyl but have been out of the loop for so long that I would appreciate to hear what products all you serious vinyl junkies are using. I have a Nitty Gritty (old, old original) but am looking at the new Loricraft. Anyone out there using one of these? Who has the best sleeves/prices? Who has the best performing solutions? Thanks!

I scored several packages of sleeves from Ebay. A guy was selling off the leftovers from "Reference Recordings" after they went out of business. They are the best 'bulk' sleeves I have ever bought.

I have never used the Loricraft cleaner, but everything I have heard about it has been positive. You certainly would not be making a mistake buying on if price is not an issue.

Good luck with your new/old pursuit. Nothing sounds as good as clean vinyl. The knowledge that it is so easy to clean and listen to this makes me wonder about the people who cannot abide vinyl due to the 'ticks and pops.' They must really not take very good care of their toys!
