Re: [ARSCLIST] 78 RECORDS MILDEW AND MOLD

[Richard Warren <richard.warren@xxxxxxxx>]

Dear Helen,

Gaylord, the library supplies company, makes sleeves suitable for LP's;
they're non-acidic and not cheap. Others may have competing items; but box
companies seem rapidly to have forgotten how to make sleeves like the
originals, though it can't be difficult.

By the way, dishwashing products are not a good idea for cleaning
recordings, since most of them contain hand lotion that can lodge in the
groove and attract gunk and dirt.
