all sleeves become somewhat dusty, but quality sleeves should protect records just fine. if they are visually inferior, change them. if not, i wouldn't worry to much about changing each time you clean a record. the mpfi sleeves are excellent, and last longer than most.
What to do with old inner sleevs after cleaning?
Hi
I know that after cleaning record you suppose to place it in a new inner jacket,prefferably made of rice paper and/or consisting of several plies of paper/plastic combination.I have MoFI sleeves and Goldring sleeves for that.My question is:what do you usualy do with old inner sleeves?Some of them have grafics/art,texts and additional info.I tried putting them alongside new inner sleeves but not all of them fit.Some are made of thick quality paper and cannot easily slide into the record sleeve thus causing huge headache when you putting the record away after playing it.
Also,some records have regular paper inner sleeves that contain only record label logos.If i throw them away,does it devalue the record as a collectible item?
I am afraid to devalue the record in case later i want to sell it but would hate to file away and index the old dusty inner sleevs for that purpose.
I would appreciate if you share your experiences regarding it.Thanks a lot!
