Quiex...what exactly is this method of vinyl pressing?


I need some details on this.

I am not sure about the method of Quiex pressing, but I have been told that the Quiex pressings are "first run" pressings on very high quality vinyl. I recall that most, if not all of my Quiex pressings, were promotional releases. Also, most of my Quiex pressings are translucent when held up to a light. similar to some half-speeds.

Quiex is a vinyl formulation and as Dem states has been used on many promotional releases (the ones I know of are on the Geffen label)

There is a Quiex II and now a Quiex SV formulation (check out Classic Records on www.classicrecords.com)

The translucency has nothing to do with Quiex. Vinyl is translucent by nature and people just color it to varying degrees.
