For Christmas I got The Complete Cartoons of The New Yorker[lucky me, but anybody got a truss?] This HUGE tome comes with two CD’s that DO contain all the cartoons. One of the discs has some sticky stuff on it, on the bottom and the edge, it wasn’t situated correctly in its sleeve. How do I remove it? I tried a mild soap, that was a no-go? What’s next:glass cleaner, alcohol,acetone??? TIA
alcohol swabs, from your first aid kit or local drug store. be gentle, and use a tissue to dry it off.
I recommened wiping in an outwards motion when drying it off, so that if the material does manage to scratch the surface a bit it will only be a fine line. If you wipe in a circular motion the scratch could make a good number of them unreadable.
A trick I learned was if alcohol alone don’t do it, rub it with vaseline first, then use alcohol with remove the vaseline.
WD 40 - It works as well as the expensive citrus gum removers to remove gummy crap and will not harm CDs. Clean WD 40 off with alcohol.
Damn these deceptive thread titles! I had this wonderful list of imaginative colonics all ready and then I read the OP! :mad:
If nothing else works, try rubber cement thinner.
