Flamesuit on, but here it goes....
I just "inherited" about 150 vinyl albums. Most are 70's rock, but some nice box sets and other surprises. I have to go through all of them as many are in rough shape and need to be tossed. All of them are really dirty and need major cleaning. I have been washing them with warm water, a clean sponge and mild dish soap. I rinse them well after washing and I let them air dry in a vinyl coated dish drying rack. I've done about 20 this way and thought I should ask around.......
Is this OK? Am I leaving soap residue? Will semi hard water ruin the vinyl?
Look forward to any comments or suggestions. Thanks!
