TA>Temps got to 90F and over 70 humitity today, so after
TA>yard chores I spent the rest of the day in our naturally
TA>air conditioned basement ( Wayne will recognize this as
TA>the "celler" in our 1800s home 8-). After transplanting
TA>some tomato seedings; fixing a couple chairs and fans;
TA>I found a small carton of what appears to be some classic
TA>78 vinyl records that has collected some yuck.

TA>Several of you all have discussed copying old recordings so
TA>I am hopeing you will be able to advise me how to best clean
TA>these records before I attempt playing and copying (some
TA>other very hot day 8-( please.

Lukewarm soapy water and a VERY soft bristled brush. Let them soak for a
while before doing anything to them. Do NOT rub to dry - Rinse
very good after washing and blow dry with a very low PSI air
source. Also, best to use distilled water. Naturally it depends upon
what the "yuck" actually is. Normally records collect dust which when
exposed to higher humidities makes it "yucky".
