Lol! :-)

Always, along with replacing the sleeves (I do keep orig sleeves in storage). Just have a spin clean, but very happy with it. I looked at about 10 albums, and it appears a few pressings have a shinier coating than most others. The more gloss like coatings, show some of these light markings. Slight, where u have to pivot the album under the light to see 'em.

Can't knock dancing cats, probably sleeving those albums while listening to Tom Jones.

Unfortunately, I have great hearing and some good audio gear.

Never set out to look with an obsessive critical eye, but today an overhead can light in our living room, caught an album just right as I was flipping sides, and I noticed some very faint little marks on the album. Under other lighting, you can't see these tiny marks. I tend to use plastic anti-static sleeves by Diskeepers or a few from Quality Record Pressings, touted as non-scratching, but seems they do (faintly). Guessing removing and putting back the albums will cause this no matter what kind of sleeve used? I don't use paper sleeves. Any other sleeve recommendations, brand, etc? Or, guessing just the nature of the vinyl surface itself. Thanks.
