The alcohol/lacquer clouds the plastic because you haven't gotten all the lacquer coating off and it rehardens as the alcohol evaporates, so if it clouds, use more alcohol to wipe it off, constantly using fresh towels so you don't redeposit the plastic lacquer coating. High volume isopropyl alcohols like 90% work best to melt the lacquer. As Blaine said, work in small sections at a time and use lots of alcohol and lots of clean towels. I've cleaned over 200 dead sides and it does take some practice. Also, of you get the lacquer on the other side of the disc, which does happen, use another clean towel with alcohol to clean it off. And don't worry, the fogging is not permanent - again, more alcohol on a clean towel will remove it.

My dead side ended up being from Felini's Casanova. I just discovered "dead sides" today and the rubbing alcohol trick. I did wonder if Novus #2 would be effective. Thanks for your report! I've wondered if alcohol could be damaging; I guess it IS if you don't get the location and timing exactly right. (That's enough to scare me.) Novus #2 doesn't scare me.
