Sandpaper a bad record back to life!

Looks interesting but i reckon you could mess it up more IF NOT CAREFUL!! (Like Running a Brillo pad over it)

Essentially it's just aggressive cleaning. It's not reversing the damage done to the record, only cleaning out the detritus that has accumulated (and definitely when the record was scratched). I would think the wood glue trick would be just as good and do so with virtually no risk for more damage to the record.

Yes that or ANYTHING STICKY i reckon would do it also!!

I tried this guys idea on 1 of my records from the 80s I didnt take care of and doesnt play well anyway and IT DIDNT DO ANY GOOD!! (If anything it made it worse (Which I thought might be what would happen))
