Guest Brett F Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 (edited) The first time I attempted this I blew a hole clean through the gable end of my house, the second time I pushed things a little and ended up in the year 1957....it took some time getting back.

Brett https://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=d6OjtKUZ048&...feature=related Excellent post. He noticed some slight warping! No Sh+t steam at 100 degrees. Whoda thought it. Would have been funnier if he had taken it from VPi to decks and done some old school scratching though.

Guest Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 I just tried it on my Pioneer and it blew the mains fuse for some reason!
Prophonics 2029 Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) Seems you have to have that special turntable vacuum accessory to make it work so you can pour water all over the place. https://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=JTrnVMtOVTc You might fall a sleep waiting for this gut to finish cleaning his records and I wonder what he is looking at when he is polishing the record, its a freakin Micro groove 33 LP you need a microscope to see the dirt in the track and not the naked eye. I did try hoy water on a record a while back to get rid of a warp, very hot water is ok but direct from the kettle really mess the disc up comparable to setting a piece of paper alight once it starts you cannot stop it.

Brett https://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=d6OjtKUZ048&...feature=related fantasic Brett. Got a little seasick when he was steaming tho' . When did Paul Donnelly learn that accent? That's not a Fen - tongue. PART 2 - Sticking on loose labels.
KevH Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 I'm hiding them in my locker at work and steaming them when I mash tea can you drive a train and mash at the same time?
pikeys dog Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 I got bored halfway thru and decided to put my steamer to better use.... https://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=DN3VJu6f-u4&...feature=related
Guest Matt Male Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 I don't get it. Wouldn't it just lift off a paper label?

Hammie Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 CAN YOU ALSO FLATTEN A WARPED RECORD WITH A STEAM IRON....? MIGHT BE WORTH A TRY
Prophonics 2029 Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 CAN YOU ALSO FLATTEN A WARPED RECORD WITH A STEAM IRON....? MIGHT BE WORTH A TRY Rather yours than mine, that's what I tried and I flattened the record but a section stretched so it was not a round 45 any more but egg shaped disc .
Guest Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Rather yours than mine, that's what I tried and I flattened the record but a section stretched so it was not a round 45 any more but egg shaped disc . And you had no idea that this might happen before you tried it!
Guest SteveJohnston Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) And you had no idea that this might happen before you tried it! Anyone got one of the ronco record cleaners you know the one's from the 70's like the one on the Bay if so are they any good? I won one at Melton Auction last Thursady along with a box of sealed Garrard stylus, three Transcriptor sealed stylus, and ten sealed Garrard cleaning cloths. But i don't want to buy the battery's if the thing is crap at cleaning https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Vintage-1976-RONCO-R...1107115002r8694 Steve J Edited November 11, 2008 by SteveJohnston
