RE: Vinyl Flat & Groovy Pouch, Second record: Rolling Stones

My second try at fixing a warp was this mid-70's reissue of "Out Of Our Heads." Bought new so the vinyl was essentially NM until I left it in my car parked in sun about forty years ago, resulting in an edge warp making tracks A1 and B1 unplayable.

For this record, I gave it a two hour cook. Took it out after cooldown and the warp is 95% fixed and close to flat. Plays and tracks without issue. However, it appears that it may have been in the Groovy Pouch a bit too long as minor 'orange peel' is evident. Not a big issue as it only create a faint 'whoosh' between tracks, not intruding on the music.

For the next try, a Bob Marley LP that suffered the same fate as the Rolling Stones LP it was in the car with, I'll start at 60 minutes, which is the manufacturer's recommendation. I can see that various records will react differently, after all the Robert Gordon EP showed no sign of heat damage despite 10 1/2 hours cooking.
