luneki Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 as the title says. I went to a concert, saw this guy I like very much, gave him a vinyl (which is a special edition of only 500 produced worldwide) for him to sign it. Never in my life thought someone would lack the common sense to sign it on the label, instead he signed the actual vinyl with sharpie! (Btw, being a special edition the vinyl is pink colored) I already tried taking as much off with some mild detergent soap but it's still there, is there anything else I can try? This is a special edition I don't want it to be ruined forever! Please there must be something I can do, even if it means like playing it on repeat so all the gunk goes on the needle I don't care, turntables are expendable, this vinyl is not! What do I do?'

itsgoodtobefree Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 If he signed the actual record that way I would have just left it like that. Also nice avatar, I just beat Mega Man 2 today. kamalatapes and Cloudsbelow 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metal Mike Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Damn, I really want to mock you and be unhelpful, but isopropyl alcohol should do the trick. I'd try that before risking a magic eraser. If I get a second wind, I'll come back with some sarcastic comments.

billya Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I'm only in this thread to find out what artist signed their own record on the actual record. Depending on the type of artist, they may have thought it'd be better art than what's within the grooves. somethingvinyl and Requiescat 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iron666monkey Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 If you and a bunch of your dude friends stand around the record and beat off on it, once the semen dries you can peel it off, which will remove the Sharpie. Similar to the wood glue method, but this is way more effective. TwitchingTongues, stl_ben, aflycon and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I've never played a sign record, but I don't think it was affect playability. Also why wouldn't you just give the artist the inner sleeve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
