Aoifnm Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Hi! I have a record that seems to have slight heat damage (see picture). The music still plays through the weird scratchy, staticy sound. But it's just really annoying. If anybody has a fix for this or a way o can make it a bit better, please tell me! Thanks.

zuck Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 That shit needs to be cleaned. If it's as dirty as it looks, that's probably why you have surface noise. aopps42 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just dust, because it's been sitting there a while. I cleaned it very well the other day, still didn't help. At the very top, it seems to be slightly melted or something, but after a minute or so it's absolute fine. 18 minutes ago, markok said: Judging by the picture - you cant fix this, sorry.

somethingvinyl Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Yeah, that's what is called an edge warp. Sometimes with weight and heat, records can be flatten to some degree. It would be nearly impossible with the location on the edge without messing up the grooves even further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, a bit of a bummer, but what can you do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
