How To: Cleaning New Records
New records need love, too. If dust particles are interrupting your analogue listening experience, you can wipe your new vinyl with an antistatic carbon fibre or velvet brush.
- Remove the vinyl from the sleeve with your thumb on the edge of the rim, and fingers on the label.
- Don't touch the playing surface. Place the vinyl on your turntable, with two hands holding the edges.
- Hold the brush on the vinyl surface for a couple of seconds, then sweep towards the edge.
