Cleaning a CD's "Clear Inner Hub"

[cloud4004]

Does anyone know a good way to clean the clear inner hub of a CD?

I've gotton a good cleaner that's spitting out my old CD's like they're brand new but it still doesn't do anything for the inner hub.

- thx

why does it matter? there's no data on it... that said, just use like a cloth or your fingernail or something.

...... :glare:

I know, it does not matter at all. I'm a bit of a perfectionist though. I want to have all of these CD's when I'm 30 so I'm trying to take the best possible care of them now. It's a bit crazy to ask for, but up until last week I didn't think it was possible to remove all the scratches from my CD's. I was asking if there was any special materials or tricks to it. A cloth and my fingernail won't really do anything.

Use a lint-free cloth with some 91% Isopropyl rubbing alcohol.
If that doesnt clean it - give up

Anything else you can try will likely eat through the plastic
