Thanks for the video, as a broadcast engineer, I've been doing this for years. The only difference is using your finger to evenly apply the glue.

Excellent, thank you Sir. The 6 Rs - “Reduce, Reuse, Restore, Repair, Repurpose (you see broken a broken glass, I see a candleholder), Recycle”. Useful tip - a little squirt of cheapo hairspray on bolt threads makes a superb, cost-effective alternative to Threadlocker™ - €1.50 instead of €12. Plus you get a lovely (initial) walnutty aroma!

Mate, just completely cleaned an album with wood glue, I was gob smacked, better than new, no pops and crackles at all. Complete silence. I was initially sceptical, but cleaning it traditionally did not work. I had years of built up grime, all gone. Now to clean the other 200, cheers

Happy to see other have same results as I do :)

And thank you for your comment :)

It works. Don't think I'd be that brave.

It is at that moment, you’re thinking you have nothing to lose. The record was a total mess. If ever played it again I would probably destroy the stylus on my turntable. And.. a new record is able to find for an affordable price. So it was for me a win win. I got my record back in very good shape, and I could prove this method works - if you’re using the correct type of glue, and take your time 😎

Amazing idea.

I am surprised after all those years, people still want to damage their records and stylus!

[@anatticinnorway2883]

As I have told in an earlier comment, that record was already a questionable object. If ever I would play that on my turntable before I tested this glue method, for certain I would destroy my stylus. And as you could see from the microscope, the record was comparable to a record which was in mint condition. So how the glue can destroy the stylus, I really does not k now. But what I do know, is that I am still enjoying this record after may times played after the glue rinse.

Former DJ from college years, been doing the glue for 30+ years. Never had an issue AND guess what, I have clean, pristine records. BTW, which record cleaning solution are you selling?

[@PedroMiguel-if3ll]

@@cvee2614 Lol, what makes you think I am selling anything? I have been a music lover buying vinyls since the 70's. If glue works for you great!
