Vinyl lp will be sent in a rice-paper-lined master sleeve. A three-ply, anti-static material is used for the inner sleeves; this material helps to resist scratches that come from frequent handling. The cover and vinyl record are stored in a 12” outer sleeve. The sleeve is made from a high-density, durable polypropylene material. All of my records have been cleaned using a Spin-Clean washer and KAB Electro EV-1 professional record cleaner.
