LAST Record Preservative. Do you believe?

I am starting with this stuff on my cleanest most loved lps. How many people use it? Have you noticed longer preservation? I have read alot possible alterations in sound, but I think they must be quite subtle, if at all present.

Also, do you fill the syringe and apply to the applicator for each side, or just once for both sides?

Do you use the STYLAST, and if so, do you apply it before each side of an lp?

Benjie,

Thank you for making this direct comparison. Did you happen to notice any difference with the high frequencies on the new LP before you put Last Preserve on it? I know it's too late now to go back and listen, but this is one criticism I have read about this product. Just curious. Thanks.

I've been using LAST since 1980, on all my albums, after a VPI cleaning. Even those that were treating then, only require Discwasher cleaning, to sound new now. Perhaps the STYLAST I used with it helped as well, but- I'd still recommend the product highly.

I should have mentioned keeping those albums in Discwasher VRP sleeves, as well. Everything helped, I'm certain.

I received a Rolling Stones' album that had been treated with Last("Sticky Fingers" or "Let it Bleed"), and thought that it hurt the dynamics. I used Stylast on my cartridges, but now use Disc Doctor. I thought Stylast was okay or good.
