Hey, I was just dusting a 45 from ’68 and it got me thinking—how do we keep these records alive without killing their vibe? What’s your go‑to method for preserving vinyl in a way that still feels authentic?
Injector Injector
Keep the vibe alive by treating the record like a fragile tool, not a toy. First, dust it with a microfiber cloth or a soft, dedicated record brush before every session. Then, if it’s really dirty, use a gentle vinyl cleaner—apply a tiny drop to a lint‑free cloth and wipe in a circular motion, never over‑wet it. Store the vinyl in its original sleeve, wrapped in a soft inner sleeve, and place it in a climate‑controlled, upright position—no crushing or stacking. Avoid metal contacts; use a wooden or silicone stylus guide if you’re swapping many records. Finally, handle the record by its edges, keep the turntable clean, and you’ll preserve the sound without killing the soul.
