Thanks for all the feedback, everyone. These don't seem to have two labels on top of each other. Would the top label come off easily if that was the case? I did find a solution for *some* of the records. There are some where the bubbling isn't very bad - it's basically a long ripple of tiny bubbles that aren't very raised. On these, I took a credit card (which makes a handy squeegy substitute) and was able to rub the bubbles out. This doesn't work on the ones with large bubbles. But on the "rippled" ones it actually worked really well.

P.S. Obviously I would avoid getting spray adhesive on the vinyl itself. I'd spray the backs of the labels separately, then apply.

The plant should fix it, but they won't (extremely shady company -this was only one of the problems we had.) We'd have to take them to court, which we can't afford. Meanwhile, people are waiting for records they pre-ordered. Why will the gluing on top not work? I admit it sounds sketchy, but if I used the right adhesive, like Krylon high strength spray, and made sure to press out any air bubbles... seems like it could work.

Just got records back from the pressing plant, and most of them have flawed center labels - scuffed, rippled, etc. I have a box of clean labels, and wonder if I can GLUE fresh labels OVER the flawed ones to salvage this mess. Has anyone done this? I figure it will be fine as long as I pick the right adhesive and don't slop glue onto the vinyl. Any feedback greatly appreciated!
