https://blog.teufelaudio.com/cd-cleanin ... /#chapter5This applies to all type of optical discs I will also add that using alcohol has the potential to get into the adhesives on an LD and if that happens you could potentially create an opening for laser rot. It's your choice if you want to risk that. rein-o wrote: If you have more than 2 LDs you should have their original inner sleeves which say how to clean these discs. Just checked some of my discs and the warnings only mention choking hazard for kids and how to store discs to prevent damage. rein-o wrote: Even player manuals say how to clean discs, please pay more attention and don't destroy our precious LDs. That I can concur that is accurate at least on the manuals I have; not sure if that's consistent from year to year but I assume yes.

Ammonia is not good for plastics. Then why isn’t my LD collection trashed? Also CD, DVD, BR? Every Gameboy screen I’ve ever owned, CD cases, TVs, you name it, I’ve cleaned it with Windex. I will say, the “plus vinegar” version you don’t want as it attacks electronics, leaves behind a residue that shorts PCB traces. This I learned the hard way.

I took it to a different level. I use isopropyl ETOH...... and never had an issue. Some help with gummy edge leaking over on platter surfaces. Never had an issue with fogging or blemishing with ETOH however still recommend testing first before going hole hog. ETOH may have an X factor interaction with previously used cleaners. Zeta, big fan of windex. Never did steer me wrong....... Cheers mates !
