Has anyone tried this on the paper glossy sleeves? Did it work? i havent, nor would i. irons can get really hot and unpredictable with the heat. ive heard of people using laminators. ive heard this a couple times from some serious record collectors. (i havent tried it) you just put the sleeve through the lamintor in the protective sleeve and run it normally on a lower hear. |

(i havent tried it) you just put the sleeve through the lamintor in the protective sleeve and run it normally on a lower hear. I do this all the time at work with my office laminator. Works great but I had to do a lot of experimenting to find the right temperature. Really thin paper (like the early versions of the GB 7" for example) can get wrinkled if the heat is too high and will look like moisture damage, and photocopies are a definite no-no as the old copy toner can stick to the protective carrier sleeve. |

I did it once with a high glossy CD cover. That was not a good idea. The paper sleeve blistered after the procedure. |

How about doing it cold? What's the force of those rollers? I have a laminator. I don't really have any records that are in a dire need of ironing however I am curious about the procedure. I might experiment with random paper stocks at random temperatures
