1. A method for manufacturing a magnetic recording medium comprising at least one magnetic layer on one surface of a non-magnetic support, comprising:
(a) applying a magnetic paint to the non-magnetic support, wherein the magnetic paint comprises:
a magnetic powder;
binder resins, comprising at least: a vinyl chloride resin having a degree of polymerization of at least 270 and an aliphatic polyester polyurethane resin;
an aromatic compound selected from the group consisting of phthalic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, benzoic acid, phenylphosphonic acid, and benzenesulfinic acid; and
a phosphoric acid ester having a number average molecular weight of from 500 to 2000;
and
(b) regulating the concentration of the magnetic paint during the application in (a) to be 2.0 percent by weight or less in terms of a ratio of the binder resins to a total sum of the binder resins and a solvent.
