What do people place on their platter for dust protection

geoffkait,

I am sorry (for once), but I completely do not understand point of your last post.

I place an ancient Asian silk cloth over my turntable when not in use. The cloth is lightly scented with the finest oils from China that have remarkable antistatic properties. And they smell great to boot! I use special silk gloves to remove the cloth from the turntable and place the cloth in an old burlap bag for temporary storage.

I use this: https://www.needledoctor.com/JA-Michell-Unicover-Dustcover

I have an old copy of Chuck Berry on Chess that looks like a cat fight took place on it.  Or an old jock strap that I ironed flat if I can't remember where Chuck is.....or just an old felt mat.
