WD 40 to remove scratches on vinyl !

wcfeil, your response makes the thread worth it😂

@wcfeil-  My first good laugh today!  THANX(I needed that, after the horrific thought of applying WD-40, to a vinyl)!

My friend's daughter "cleaned" his LP collection with a pumice stone.  Your WD40 idea comes close.

Take 57 minutes out of your life and watch the Live Origin lecture on cleaning records. It does a good job to debunk all all of those sake oil salesmen on youtube.

WD 40 doesn't fix scratches.
BUT as the cleaner of last resort!!
If you have a non-scratched record suffering with surface noise which
no amount of cleaning fixes, then....
Wipe the record with a clean paper cloth wetted with WD 40.
Then rinse the record under a tap, trying not to get the label wet.
Voila! I have a small number of charity shop records which are
now quiet and play well. WD 40 saved them from the rubbish tip.
