Be careful not to scratch either the read side or the label side. Keep them away from solvents and their fumes. All of the above can damage the disc. I have used warm water and dish detergent successfully to clean a CD that was dirty enough to not read properly, and have also used Windex for the same purpose. Make back ups and update them periodically, as CD's can, all on their own, render themselves unusable. William Robb
