Thanks for the input. Most of the discs I buy are from markets and have some dirt, dust build up on the covers. Can't really explain, just brown muck which has built up over time. I'll try a lightly damp cloth and then alcohol if needed. If anyone has any other tips please let me know!

Cleaning LD covers, I have only used a small few drops of water on a couple of sheets of paper kitchen towel, just a light wipe and that was it. Don't use alcohol as this would react to the ink........ I wouldn't risk as there is no need. I hope I have been of some help here.... Kind Regards

Ancient thread, but I don't think it is worth creating yet another. I have always used Novus #1 on the sleeve/cover/jacket. I finally received one so filthy though that I didn't think the Novus would be sufficient. Ended up using two Clorox wipes that worked great. It was free, I didn't have it, and a little bit of a more sought after title so I'm glad I could get it presentable. Still a few stains, but not bad overall. Stay Tuned (1992) [12595]

That is a pretty good before & after you have done with that. From pretty grotty to pretty presentable .

The only hard stops for me though are mold/mildew followed by stacking. signofzeta wrote: Dang, that thing was nasty. Yeah I think the previous owner was using it as a coaster. Inner WB sleeve went instantly into the trash. Little bits of grit had entered between the inner sleeve plastic and disc that cause a significant amount of minor abrasions on the disc but nothing to keep it from playing. I'd still rather have disc like this than a slightly warped one in great cosmetic condition.
