Over time, with playing constant playing, do vinyl records wear out?


I am resurrecting my 60's, 70's & 80's LPs. None have a clean apart from the cursory anti-static brush. My question is do these circular vinyl music discs wear out. With a new cartridge needle, gunge or no gunge in the groves, the hard needle material must wear away the indentations in a vinyl record. So no amount of cleaning will save them over time. Friction will win out...

If your last question resulted from your first listen...1960's...I don't think you'll have anything to worry about.
