Let&#8217;s find out!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>WHAT IS THE REAL COLOR OF VINYL RECORDS?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-32445\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Polyvinyl-chloride-.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Polyvinyl-chloride-.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Polyvinyl-chloride--300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Polyvinyl-chloride--600x400.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Vinyl records<\/strong> were once made of shellac and were more known as phonograph records, not until the 1940\u2019s. Polyvinyl chloride or more commonly known as PVC replaced the shellac and that\u2019s how vinyl records got its new name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chemicalsafetyfacts.org\/polyvinyl-chloride\/\">PVC<\/a><\/strong> is a synthetic plastic polymer that is naturally colorless. When it is held up to a light source, though it looks white, light can shine through it. In order to color the PVC, colorants and other additives are mixed with it. To attain the traditional black color of vinyl records, black carbon is added, while dyes are added to have the colored vinyl.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may have heard some people talking about how the traditional black <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/products\/7-inch-vinyl-single-jackets\">custom vinyl records<\/a> are superior compared to the colored and picture disc vinyl. This is a very valid argument for you see, black carbon on PVC\u2019s do not only give color it also strengthens the mix as well as reduces static electricity when being played on the turntable. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This makes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/blog\/classic-black-vinyl-records-modern-vinyl-packaging-designs\/\">black vinyl records<\/a> more durable to playback. Unlike black carbon, dyes do not strengthen the vinyl record. However, this difference is unnoticeable and will only be noticeable when mistakes are made during the process of producing them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>IS SOUND QUALITY REALLY BAD WITH COLORED VINYL RECORDS?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-32447\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IS-SOUND-QUALITY-REALLY-BAD-WITH-COLORED-VINYL-RECORDS.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IS-SOUND-QUALITY-REALLY-BAD-WITH-COLORED-VINYL-RECORDS.jpg 790w, https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IS-SOUND-QUALITY-REALLY-BAD-WITH-COLORED-VINYL-RECORDS-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.unifiedmanufacturing.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IS-SOUND-QUALITY-REALLY-BAD-WITH-COLORED-VINYL-RECORDS-768x515.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vinyl record production has improved so much within the last 20 years and most colored vinyl records released nowadays deliver sound quality that\u2019s the same as the black vinyl pressing released. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There may be exceptions to this, however, and I admit that picture discs still have some flaws of their own, especially it\u2019s playback durability.

The custom vinyl pressing of clear, picture discs and glow-in-the-dark vinyl records.
