My grading:

 

NM: Virtually brand new

NM-: plays like new but a few pops and ticks show up

NM--: still a great sounding LP but just a bit more surface noise

VG+: Surface is more noticeable and on multiple tracks

VG: Surface noise throughout but does not take away from presentation

VG-: Well- now you'll notice the noise very easily but the disc still has all its sound

G: A bit of a tough ride now 

G-: buckle up

 

All discs are distortion free: i.e. all loud climax hold their own and do not break up
