Try this. Go to your local wal-mart and pick up those bags of cedar wood pieces[they come in different shapes and sizes]. Pick the ones you like and place them among the offending lps. You could also try fabric softener sheets[bounce] that you use in the dryer....good luck. It is hard to ignore those .99cent gems. Seasons' greetings...
Bringin' that thrift-store smell home
For the past few months I've been avidly (my friends say compulsively) searching the local thrift stores for LPs. I've found some great recordings, but as I accumulate more and more of them I'm finding that my house is smelling more and more like a thrift store. I expect that many of the LPs I've bought have been stored in damp places and have become moldy, even though they look fine.
Has anyone else faced this problem? Any ideas for deodorizing LP jackets? Thanks.

there is very expencive tweak could be bought call "Rainbow" vacume cleaning and filtering machine made by GE. all you have to do is to place it next to the smelled area, turn it on and it will filter the air arround. costs about $1.7k. if you're using record-cleaning machine you might ask for some scentic from the record cleaner manufacturer:-) |
Now that I've finally stopped laughing at Basements post, here is a product that I find works well at eliminating this problem. http://www.punati.com/Page.bok?file=Orig12.html After you have a look at it, typing the name at Google gets lots of hits for retailers. |
