I EXPERIENCED SOME PRETTY NASTY FUMES WHEN EXPERIMENTING WITH HEATING VINYL AND RESEARCHED THE POTENTIAL RISKS

YINYL RECORDS ARE MADE OF POLYVINYL CHLORIDE AND POLYVINYL ACETATE. WHEN HEATED ABOVE ROOM TEMP THESE WILL OFF GAS CHLORINE AND DIOXIDES – BOTH ARE VERY DANGEROUS.

BECAUSE OF THESE DANGERS AND THE SUB-OPTIMAL TEST REULTS I DECIDED TO NOT EXPERIMENT RUTHER WITH VINYL.
