The treatment works, silently. The only problem occurs when it is applied without sufficient prior cleaning of the LP.

I agree. If the record is cleaned on a good machine and rigorously polished when the preservative is added, noise levels are not appreciably increased and the record is far less prone to developing a static charge (which attracts dust) and seems to suffer no deterioration with age.Since I have not encountered a used record with the last label on it, I don't know if they are generally better or worse than average in condition. I would expect that anyone who would subject themselves to the considerable expense and pain-in-the-ass procedure would also be careful in their handling of their records.
obviously a euro thing if the preservative... one question, curiously:
who sticks the stickers on the discs? do they come from the factory so treated first or last, and so noted, or does the company supply the stickers with the product, for users to proudly display?
Yes, Last supplies the stickers inside the package. I suppose its just so you can readily identify which LP's you've already treated so as to avoid re-treating.
