Default Paper or plastic inner sleeves?

I am gonna clean my records with the Spin Clean next week. Should I get paper or plastic inner sleeves to keep things nice and clean?

DJ.......I recommend plastic, and store the albums with the sleeve opening up inside the album cover. That keeps dust from entering, and keeps the vinyl from accidentally rolling out during handling.

If I had a choice, I would go with paper. You can go with plastic, but if you have a static issue with an LP, well, anyone who's dealt with plastic & static, know what I'm talkin' about. Either way, I agree with Dan. Store the open side up, when placing the sleeve in the cover.

This reminds me of the question we used to hear at the grocery store checkout...............................

I've been using poly lined sleeves for years without any problems. I actually prefer rice paper but they are not as sturdy.

A good source is.
