Inleiding
Improper storage, exposure to heat, and cats can lead to warped vinyl. Warped vinyl can lead to a wobbly sounding rendition of your favorite song. Fortunately, warped records can often be fixed, so you can be back to rockin' and rollin' in no time. You'll need two sheets of glass larger than your album, but small enough to fit in your oven. Heavier or thicker glass tends to work best.
Once you've finished your repair, be sure to store your vinyl properly, vertically and out of the heat, to prevent any future warping.

excellent instructions . I tried to give you the extra points but once I signed in I couldn't find a spot to click on!

j’ai réussi à dévoiler un vinyl neuf que je viens de recevoir par blueNote »rolling » de Truffaz. J’ai d’abord essayé 3 min à 80 degrés C, le vinyl étant toujours voilé, je l’ai laissé 6 min et là c’est parfait. Pour un précédent cas avec un autre vinyl j’avais fait couper 4 disques de verre de 10 mm d’épaisseur au format 33t en securit, j’ai posé le vinyl nettoyé aux ultra sons sur le premier disque, j’ai posé les 3 autres disques de verre dessus, mis au four, et voilà une belle galette bien récupérée.

Test your vinyl out. If there is still a warp you can repeat the process heating it for just a little longer and weighting it with a heavier object.

just the same process to fix the graphic card of a macbook pro :-D
(Y) great!
When I was a kid, I watched my Mom fix a warped record one time by putting it between the plates of glass and setting it in direct sunlight for about 10 minutes. That worked as well.
Would sheets of stainless steel work? I don't have access to glass sheets.
I used 2 pieces of glass first time 170 degrees 3 minutes did not do the job then I try 4 minutes a bit better then I went for 5 minutes after that I put 4 heavy books for weight on the glass for 1 hour.The record came out perfect.
Now, if only there was an easy way to fix scratches…

Clean a record with wood glue:
I came here because the new Fleetwood Mac albums (50 Years Don’t Stop Collection)I received today are warped… Got a kick out of seeing Rumours. Luckily, however, my Rumours original press is nice and straight. Gonna return/replace my box set… But, thanks for the tutorial. It’ll surely come in handy for some of my other vinyls.
For the two glass panes you can use two sliding mirror from a bathroom/laundry wall cabinet..
Many ovens, including mine, will not regulate properly down to 80C…..The lowest setting on mine is 120C….Far too hot, as I found out!
The temperature can be changed however by slowly moving the knob around between the lowest setting and off ..(gas oven).
Use a temperature probe in the oven, attached to a temperature or multi-meter and stay and adjust the oven to the right temperature for the necessary 3 - 5 minutes with the record in the oven.
Remember it is better to underdo (can redo) than overdo (It’s toast) for obvious reasons…Good luck!
