protectyouplay briefly introduces Record sleeves

These archival-quality rice paper vinyl record sleeves are anti-static, so they prevent dust and dirt from clinging to your records. These sleeves are thicker than the standard sleeves that records come with, too, so they’re excellent options for upgrades as well as replacements.

Store records vertically to prevent warping and keep them in their sleeves to protect them from dust and damage.
Avoid exposing records to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight, which can cause damage to both the records and the sleeves.
Use high-quality, acid-free sleeves that are designed specifically for vinyl records to prevent damage and discoloration over time.
Avoid stacking records too tightly or placing heavy objects on top of them, as this can cause damage to both the records and the sleeves.
Keep records in a cool, dry, and stable environment to help preserve their condition over time.
By following these guidelines, you can help ensure that your vinyl records and their sleeves remain in good condition for many years to come.

The worst kind is made from pure paper. Move your record in and out of a paper inner and, over the years, it will act like a fine grain piece of sandpaper, adding surface noise to your record. Recommended inners arrive in two flavours, either as a delicate plastic liner within a paper inner or as a round-bottomed plastic-only variant. The latter is useful because you don’t have to struggle to get the corners of a paper inner into the card sleeve, which causes folding and creasing.
