HybridxReality Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 That keeps the plastic wraps of vinyl I buy? My father did this with a Queen boxset he bought a long time ago and I was "that's so weird" and now I do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitty Rambo Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Like remove the shrink wrap and then keep that crap somewhere else? I slit the opening and will leave the shrink wrap on until it gets all janky, most of my records still have it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhulud Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 ^^ Ditto. I do it on most record that are shrinkwrapped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I keep the stickers that sometimes come on the plastic wrap. If I can peel it off safely, I stick it on the inner sleeve. If I can't, then I just cut off the plastic with it and stick it in the jacket. Being a dork is FUN! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooks Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Yeah, I cut out all the hype stickers and slip them in the sleeves like extra inserts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lsp27 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I use to cut out the hype sticker and use double sided tape and put it on the plastic outer sleeve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFP Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I don't necessarily keep the shrink wrap on the records all of the time (they can end up warping), but I do keep the shrink if it has a hype sticker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I do it if there's a hype sticker, otherwise I take it off. If it's a gatefold, I'll usually just cut out the hype sticker and throw it in the sleeve. I keep meaning to peel them off and put them on a better outer sleeve, but I don't know if I'll ever be that ambitious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serious business Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I used to keep all the shrink on them, not any more though. Not sure when or why unchanged my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost_Parlour* Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Anyone try to peal off the stickers and put them on re-sealable sleeves? Im like at a 70% success rate with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall which thread I saw this in, but someone mentioned they used a blow dryer to loosen up the glue a bit and then removed the sticker and had good luck with that route.
