Miami, you can put glass in the oven. The trick is to avoid massive temperature shifts at once. I use Pyrex in the oven all the time. I'm not sure how putting it in the freezer would help, though I've used the freezer trick successfully on other tech so who knows.
Rusty, you made me realize that I should just go for it. I paid very little for the whole container full of records and they aren't rare finds or anything like that. It's no big deal whether I mess them up or not really. I've had them for about four months. I want to save as many as possible of course, but your insight empowered me to experiment with it a bit. Thanks!
After going through the box again, I realized I have more bent records than I originally thought. I think I'm up to six now. I started with the ones I don't know much about or just don't care for. I've tried a few things so far. I thought heating it up with a hairdryer might be more gentle, but it was a poor idea and obviously did nothing to the vinyl. I realized that it wasn't going to work pretty quickly. I also tried heating it up in the oven on one pane of glass without another pane on top which wasn't much help. Placing the vinyl record between two panes cracked the record. I think my glass might have been too heavy though. So, I've lost Crosby Stills and Nash Daylight Again.
Up next is legendary blue's guitarist Johnny Winter and I'll try to fix it with gofar99's pizza stone advice. Thanks for sharing that website too, gofar99!
Thankfully, all the Eagles' records are in excellent shape. Losing one of those would have stung.
