Removing print from cd
United States	2007-07-28 03:43:16

I pulled out a recovery cd for my old computer - the cd hasn't been touched since the computer was new, and is in a plastic wallet with a printed insert. The printed insert had stuck to the cd and the printing has stuck to the data side of the cd. Does anyone know how to safely get this off?

This is going to sound crazy, but bear with me. A friend of mine heard that you could fix a scratched CD with a marker and so she colored in all the scratches and tried to play it. Well, it didn't work, actually made it skip even worse, then later her son took the CD and cleaned off all the ink with nail polish remover and it worked just fine. If all else fails, I'd give it a try.

TIA Well, first thing I'd try is a couple hours soaking in a shallow bath of water. If humidity was enough to make it sticky, water ought to be enough to loosen it. Water ought not damage the cd, either. Worth a try, but no guarantees, naturally.
