This is easier said than done - hence the existence of this guide - but there are certainly ways you can limit the amount of grime that ends up clogging up the grooves on your records.
For starters, learn to handle your records with care. Never touch the grooves, instead hold the record at its edges. If you do get any finger prints or dirt on the playing surface, wipe away gently with a soft, clean cloth.
Storing your vinyl properly is another great way to keep the grime at bay for longer. When you're not playing a record keep it in a dust cover inside its sleeve and in built-for-purpose vinyl storage that's in a cool dry place and away from direct sunlight.
And this is a good tip generally: store your vinyl upright when it's not in use to prevent warping.
