LAST Record Preservative - Application Techniques

I put the bottle inside a large bowl so if it falls over I have a chance of recovering it.

This stuff is no good for records use a good record wash keep in rice paper jacket.

HI All,
I have been using Last Record Preservative since the mid-eighties to treat my 4500 strong record collection. I have learned a lot about Last, both the preservative and the stylus treatment.

To counter Ebm, this stuff is close to a miracle. It works just like the Last factory claims. Of course, washing and good liners are very important. Last takes record care to the next level. I have run carefully controlled experiments to try to refute the claims. All I accomplished was confirming the claims. Ebm, you should take a closer look.

Application for me is centered around my VPI 17 RCM. After I have washed the record, and while it is still on the platter, I use the eye dropper with about an inch of Last contained and apply it evenly to the Last applicator. I apply by turning on the VPI platter and pressing the applicator down on the revolving record. You can see the Last being applied and then it evaporates quickly.

Apply to the second side then you are done except for marking the jacket and you have a happy, static free, protected record. It only needs to be done once.

Karma 16, do you use Last products for cleaning records too?

HI,
No I don't. I use a home made brew that works very well. I have no reason to think the Last cleaner solution is anything but excellent. Maybe I should use it. But mine works well and is a lot cheaper. I developed my formula before Last had a cleaning solution for sale.
