is there anyway to make them less slippery, They're so difficult to mix with, take ages to get up to speed.
An example of such records would be
MIKE - turn out the lights
Danny C - The Twist
anyone got any suggestions |

| these records are thinner, therefore not spinning up faster, you just hafto use your fingers, or get different slipmats. |

that is used for playing 7" vinyl with a bigger hole.. but i guess it can be used as a weight.. although i think itd be annoying when changing tracks. any thin vinyl i have i just compensate with how i queue it up. just practice a bit and its pretty easy to get around.

| or maybe you could Blu-Tak it to the top of an old record (non slippy one), thats what i do with my 7" & 10" records! |

Practice
learn to deal with it.
Warped one sided records are slippier than a very slippy thing from slippy world covered in oil, but happens.
Or glue them to a spare pair of slipmats.
Or learn to pitch and adjust using the slider and not touching the vinyl itself |
