Has anyone any hints on trying to remove static and surface noise from Vinyl records? I have some old records that I recently got out for nostalgia's sake, and was abhored by the surface noise! I wiped them with a so called anti-static wipe...no effect. I washed them under a cold tap and played them wet...and they sounded superb...until they dried out again! How can the improved results be sustained, or achieved another way? Tim

Tim, Try your local hi-fi shop - they may have a cleaning machine or they may well know someone who can help. Alternatively look in the back of HiFi News and Record Reviews - they occasionally have adverts from companies that clean record - usual cost about �1.50 Dave | |||||

There used to be a 'spray on goo' that solidified on the vinyl, then could be peeled off. Not sure if its still available though. Mikef |
