[@xpez]

glad you played the record so we could hear it to see your ingenious method worked!!!

[@dbnnn207]

I was told of this method by an Audiophile back in the late 1980's. It works, done properly and with patience. Sound is not affected.

[@ccleblanc1668]

Totally worked for me. My copy of Joy Division Unknown Pleasures had been given to me by a friend that left it in her car for 4 months. It had a nasty bit of warping right in one spot on the edge. I believe it's 180 gram copy. If you have a cheap thin record then maybe 10 minutes might be too long but for this one it worked perfect. Thanks for sharing.

[@planetiowa]

I've straightened them using solar power. I used two pieces of thicker glass. The top piece supplied the weight. A few minutes were needed. I carefully carried the glass and LP into the house to cool. After a while, I took off the top piece of glass. The previously warped LP was now perfectly flat. It played fine.

[@SLIMKUTT]

Always wanted to try that, I think I'll do it this summer...

[@woopimagpie]

I've done that. A bit risky though, they can get too hot quite easily, as I found....

[@barriedams]

Many thanks for making this video. I've just tried this with a warped record of my own, which was so warped the needle jumped up and down on the first track of both sides, skipping repeatedly, but now it's flat enough to play through just fine after doing your glass chopping board method. I put a dumbell weight on the top board for an hour after heating as I didn't have a block of wood, which served just fine as a substitute.

[@andrewoldham1]

Fantastic thanks just tried this myself and it worked so well. A £30 vinyl LP saved. Was a little worried before but no damage to the vinyl at all. Thanks for a great tip.

[@demonovationable]

I used some glass shelves from IKEA made for the Kallax, they are heavy and fit a 12 inch record perfectly. I had a 10" record that was badly warped from being left in the car. I put it between the glass and into a 175 degree oven (the lowest my oven can go) for about 10 minutes. I then took it out and put something heavy on top and let it cool for a few hours. It didn't work. I did it again but this time left it in for 45 minutes. After cooling the record still has a *slight* warp, but plays perfectly. No melted grooves, no issues with the stylus tracking. This method works perfectly. Plus, if a record is so warped it doesn't play properly, what do you have to lose?

[@johnklein338]

Potential wear on the stylus, otherwise it's worth a try on an otherwise unplayable record.

[@segraves138]

Just tried this on an Ozzy record that came from the UK and it was badly warped from manufacturing or shipping across the pond. I did actually what you did and it worked perfectly. Other videos say to leave it in the oven for 1/2 hour but for ten minutes and put a weight on it for an hour works. I just thought it was funny you got a warped record from US and I got one from UK.

[@aoxomoxoa53]

This nearly worked! The problem I had was that, even though there was only a tiny amount of the record poking out of the chopping board (2mm), that edge went crinkly and the record ended up no good. The rest of the record looked really good. So the answer, for me anyway, is to make sure that the glass completely covers the record, preferably with a bit to spare. Since writing this I've tried it on 4 more records. They're all now write-offs, so I'd steer clear.

[@crazyprayingmantis5596]

I've done this and melted one record, the times where the record hasn't melted the record remained warped. It seems there's a very fine line between having enough heat to actually make the vinyl pliable and not enough that it just remains the same shape once cooled. Very fine line that's very tricky to find and can be very costly to.

this process might work but everyone PLEASE DO NOT PUT YOUR RECORDS IN FOR 10 MINUTES. I left mine in for 5 minutes and it was unplayable, the record grooves were flattened and compromized. I think leaving it in for maybe 3 1/2 or 4 minutes at most might work but 10 minutes is crazy... dont do it!

You can do this on a hot, sunny 90 Degree day as well. I try to get the record as clean as possible but never had a problem with dirt getting embedded. I could see how an oven would cause that problem though

[@dawnpatrol700]

You have to be extremely careful. If you leave it too long in heat source, grooves start shrinking, making it useless. Once the vinyl softens, it has to be removed from heat source immediately. I do the same thing with 2 pieces of glass I had tailor made for this purpose, but I use direct sunlight on a hot day. With this method I can monitor it constantly, to check when it's soft, just by removing the top glass sheet. Once it's soft, I put the sheet back on and move it to a cold area

[@johnhanek167]

Very nice. I just put any old record on my Sota Star Sapphire TT with vacuum hold down. Every record plays absolutely perfectly flat and the stylus views the record as a 35 pound chunk of vinyl. Hard to beat.

[@garyausten5939]

After my Technics SL-5 bit the dust last month I looked at some nice tables. I was impressed by the Sota factory tour vids, but even the cheapest model was quite a bit over my budget. I ended up getting a Rega Planar 2 replacing the Carbon cartridge with an AT VM540ML, and so far I'm very happy with it. I found some old albums my mom had and one is really warped (oompah band from Austria). I might try to flatten it.

I do a similar thing to my warped records, but didn't put them in oven. Instead I put that glass-record sandwich on my terrace in full summer sun for an hour, then brought it back to room and kept it like that for another one hour. After that my record came out fully flattened. No damage to the grooves. I just added an unused LP jacket after making holes of the same diameter as the centre level and put them in that sandwich in this order: Glass -> one side of paper jacket with hole -> record -> other side of paper jacket -> glass, and tightened them with cloth clips on all sides, before putting it in the sun.

I have another video up with a longer piece of music and no strike, just a notice in my message inbox saying they detected a song.

Hello, I tried flattening several records using the method shown in your video. Step by step, and from time to time, I tried, carefully and gradually to slightly raise the heat temperature to try and flex the record, but unfortunately there was no change and the record remained warped.

[@MarcovanB]

If you are using fan oven set it for 60. Fan ovens are generally 20degC hotter than the setting, this is because the setting is for the main oven only, not the oven plus fan. Ovens will all be slightly variable so perhaps start at a lower temp and work up to find the sweet spot. Different vinyl thicknesses may respond differently at diff temps. I would experiment with some old shit from a charity shop to find a sweet spot for your records.

What some are missing is that not all LP's are the same, and so they will not react the same to this heat treatment. Older ones are thicker and made from different plastics. Be cautious here, especially with an expensive LP.

[@Classicsmitty]

Honestly most newer LPs are thicker than those from 70s and 80s, though most made now are from recycled plastics. Also do NOT recreate the steps as seen in this video unless it’s an Adele or TSwift album.

Using heat to remove the warping in the vinyl also melts the grooves in the LP, thus destroying the quality off the recordings. DO NOT USE THIS METHOD!

[@WarHog38KCS]

Vinyl has memory in regard to form. Old thick vinyl that has been warped many years is tough to ever again flatten. The later thinner vinyl 70's and the 80's LP's are pretty easy to un-warp. I have gotten the warps successfully out of dozens of those. The oven method is an extreme. Too easy to get vinyl surface heat damage which is not repairable. I just put warped LP's in a tight pack within LP shelving in my attic. One hot summer up there in the southern US. No more warp.

[@laurend7312]

Hey, I know this is a 5 year old comment, just responding in case you get alerted and are able to reply. I have a record my Dad left me when he passed, he was a huge Red Sox fan and has a record of the entire 1975 season that had never been opened or played, he had been saving it as a collectible. But it was stored in our attic in Florida for over 30years. When I finally opened it for the first time to listen with my husband on our record player in LA, after having it shipped from FL, it's extremely warped. I am very hesitant to use the oven and put it in there without being an expert on that method or the correct temperature/length of time. When you say you use the natural heat of the attic to unwarp them, do you mean leave it tightly packed with something on top of it or an entire summer in an attic? As in 2-3 months? Thanks!

[@WarHog38KCS]

@@laurend7312 Hello, still got the KZbin site. I have some old homemade LP wooden shelving in my attic. The high heat of today would be perfect for curing warped records in my attic. I use to get basically just mildly warped brand new records out of a huge cutout warehouse that I searched. I would put those warped records tightly packed with other records side by side within that attic wooden shelving. Extremely tight! Your husband might be helpful to muscle them into a tightly packed shelf. I always carefully placed the warped record between other records and positioned it all the way into the wooden shelf, then I muscled records into that shelf binding everything as tightly as possible. I then waited for the high heat of a summer of high 90's & hundred degree days piled together. The time period for doing that here is about over for this year. I know little about the climate in LA. Good Luck. I would not go the oven route on a cherished record. A vinyl groove changing heat warp is the end of it. Trash basket material.

[@bradt.3555]

I use a record cleaner that vacumes the grooves out. I use 8, 2 inch binder clips around the glass. All pvc formulations are different so the correct time and heat is very hard to get. And letting it cool slowly and completely I believe helps. I've had about 60 to 70% success. Some have gotten flat and still played and sounded great, but some developed some minor pops n ticks. May have been dirt but under micro. looks like very, very, slight vinyl damage. If unplayable to start, nothing to lose, otherwise tough choice. Me being a reformed perfectionist it's tougher.

As little as that record was warped, I could play it on my turntable with no problem. The real problem is if the warped area is short and deep, so that the bottom of the cartridge hits the surface of the record. Sunshine is gentler than an oven.

[@hanshansen9777]

Thanks for the heads up Jaidon. I think im going to try yr experiment. I will have the glass cut by our local Glazier. How thick glass do y think I should tell him to cut and also do you think i need those 4 plastic things in the corner of the glass? - happy listening from Denmark.

[@JaidonRymer]

The glass should be a minimum of a few mil thick, and them plastic things on the corners are just because I used chopping boards, they have no effect on the process that's why they are all facing outwards as not to lift the glass off the record. Hope this is of help :)

[@veganbeetle]

I'd say 80 degrees C is a bit hot. 65 tops. Also, glass on it's own is likely to squash the grooves. Put the record in a sleeve first and don't put the vinyl in the oven, the hot glass should do the job on it's own. Heat the glass in the oven then take it out and put the vinyl in. Baking your vinyl is likely to end in disaster. I notice you didn't play the record at the end to prove the process had worked. Flat vinyl but did it play?

I just bought an Elvis Gold vinyl record for about $12.00 at a second hand store. When I got it home I discovered that it has a warp on the first two songs. If I use your method, should I do the whole disc, I should I just concentrate on the one area? And how much does that piece of wood weigh?

Wish Id seen this 30 years ago! I have tried in the past with hot water but didnt really work, the glass sandwich idea is a good one!

Do you think this will work for my vinyl? Cos I had just received it in the post. And the postman bent it just for it to stick out of my post box.

Chelsea Tamara That's disgusting hon . I'd make an official complaint. What a bastard thing to do 😑

[@ralphreinhardt6020]

Its not called a vinyl, its called a record. If you have more than 1. They're called records, not vinyls. This is your lesson for the day. Carry on.🙂🙂🙂

What's wrong with the 'vinyl' Go easy on me I'm still trying to learn

[@ralphreinhardt6020]

@@brez1093 Hi there, not attacking you. See the smile faces. Vinyl is what the records are made out of. You don't go and buy a CD in the music store and ask the clerk were are the plastics. Records have been around since the early 1900's. Thee correct term for them is a record. Plural , meaning more than one . Is records, its just a matter of using the correct terminology. Hope this helps you out some. Happy New Year to you young sir. 🙂

[@brez1093]

That was actually very helpful information and made a lot of sense. Thank You! And Happy New Years to you too!!!

How much did you preheat the oven too?

[@koenraadhendrik]

I tried this method today and it totally broke my record. Unplayable, thanks!

Do you have a video of how to set the timer on my oven?

[@SKvldlf]

Do the oven smells make the vinyl smell like stuck on food?

[@simonwilson7264]

Might be flat does it still play

[@josephetherton]

Tell me about it man. I live in the USA and even here I get packages damaged from UPS. They suck. Great video tho 👍👍

I'm a young hipster millennial and just came here to be part of the cool Vinyl crowd. Yay old things are fun! Now back to my 60million songs that fit on a Micro SD the size of my thumb nail.

You sir are the dog's bollocks.. great video. I just bought a warped record and will try this. I only paid $4.99 for so it's not a big deal

[@sbooder]

Ovens are not a good idea when it comes to records. Keep the LP in its sleeve (this makes the contact softer so as not to harm the ridges of the tracks). Then put it between to flat glass pains not to light but not to heavy, laminated sheets are good, around 0.5cm thick (avoid big blocks of wood!). Place in airing cupboard for 10 minutes (Can take a bit longer depending on the thickness of the record) (again not in an oven). Take it out and leave to get back to room temp. And then store your LPs vertically as always. We did this a lot in the 70s & 80s and it works a treat and no damage to your records.

What is an airing cupboard ?

[@yardbirds89]

@@seeburg220 I was thinking the same thing

[@comfy1962]
