Just dusting them off does not help. >could somebody please help me...Thanks!! - ----------------------- Hi Hermen, If these are, in fact, vinyl (i.e. 10" or 12" 331/3 RPM) the best way is with warm soapy water. Use a mild liquid soap (like Ivory Liquid) with lukewarm (not hot) water. Rub lightly with a soft cloth in a circular motion. Don't soak them, and be careful not to get water on the labels....
Good luck and best wishes,
Tom Ball
