Title: How do you clean a CD (blazing) laser?
Post by: MrFlutterPie on April 24, 2013, 03:51:41 PM

Hey guys it's me again lol.

I know there is a way to clean the laser in the CD with alcohol or something.  How does one go about actually doing that?

Is this one of those stupidly easy things to do and I look like a idiot for asking? :lol: :P

Just dab a Q-tip with some rubbing alcohol, lightly rub the laser lens with the wet end of the Q-tip, and then lightly wipe it with the dry end.

Thanks for the reply.
