Rubber renew. Google for the best deal/local sales. $5-6 for a small bottle which will last forever if you're just cleaning turntable belts.. your belt will be just like new again... maybe even a bit better. Talcum powder sounds like a bad idea, odd VPI would suggest making the rubber surface less likely to grip the platter at 100%.
How often do you replace your belt?
No, this is not one of those questions where I'm looking for an answer like, "After Thanksgiving." The belt on my table is over three years old. When I place the brush on the vinyl, it slows down now. I'm also questioning the sound quality lately, I'm thinking, the belt may need replacement. Does anyone have a formula? Like every year or so? In which case I'm long overdue? I just ordered a new Turbo power supply. Maybe all I needed to do was replace the belt? Hmmm...
Thanx,
