captainmorgan Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Uh, I just use my keys. Works like a charm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aviolentworld Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Uh, I just use my keys. Works like a charm. are we talking the swrink wrap around an lp or the lp mailer itself??? cuz if someone is trying to open a lp mailer with thier fingernails that would take hours. i will usually use my keys or a pocket knife to open the mailer though. to take shrinkwrap off a record i use my finger nail. i hate it when you cant find a good starting point though.

captainmorgan Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I thought we were talking about mailers. An xacto or something seems like overkill for shrinkwrap. Shrinkwrap sucks, though, I wish people didn't use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konk Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I used a steak knife to trim my Arrivals record because it was rubbing against the armrest. Is that what it's called? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsleepOnRocks Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Usually just use my keys for opening LP mailers, and my jeans for opening shrink wrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmonaut Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Your jeans? How does that one work? that's a good question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsleepOnRocks Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 You just rub the where the LP sleeve opening is on your jeans and the friction just splits the shrink wrap. It's really quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
