This is the first time that I have read about this issue. I still buy a lot of used CDs and I’m often shocked at the condition. Fingerprints are nothing compared to the ones that look like they have been walked on. I use Novus products to clean them. Novus #1 is for "Clean & Shine", and the #3 is the "Heavy Scratch Remover." I have no connection to the product line but I have used them for many years. Candidly, I have not used either of them on my SACDs. When I find them, which is rare, they are usually well cared for by the previous owner. I’ll have to read the label if I ever decide to clean any of my own SACDs. Thanks for the warning!
SACD Warning--"Do not use liquid cleaning..." ?
Several of my SACDs come with a warning on the inside of the bottom of the case "DO NOT USE liquid cleaning and/or anti-static solutions on this disc." What is the story with these? I noticed that the disc surface looks different from my other SACDs.
Supposedly Shine-ola is safe for these SACDs. But how about Mikrosmooth (which involves rinsing the disc with water afterwards)?
