what to do when vinyl "clicks"??

is there anything i can do when avinyl "clicks" every now and then? i just got it from dacegrooves so it shouldnt be worn out or anything, and i tried cleaning it a bit (though no visible dirt), but with no success.
is this a "bad" record then or what?

From my experience, just wipe it down the best you can, and if that doesn't work then its just the way the vinyl was pressed. Theres pretty much nothing you can do about it!

Buy one of those record cleaning machines... you know, the big fancy ones...

Or get a record cleaner and a brush (less effective, but it should still work...)

Agreed, a record washing machine is one of the best buys I ever made. Although they may not solve all problems they can definately help you care for your vinyl.
