How can I safely remove Optrix from my CDs?


I have some CDs that have fairly significant clouding after I treated them with Optrix.

Is there a safe way to remove the Optrix from my CDs?

Thanks in advance!

I contacted the manufacturer who suggested I clean the cloudy cd's with undiluted 91% isopropyl alcohol. I applied the alcohol with a small spray bottle and used a radial cd cleaning system to remove the haze. ( Allsop markets these cleaners and I have also seen them at Radio Shack (cat. # 42-208) for about $10.00. I was cautioned not to spray the label side as the alcohol may remove the label. Severe cloudiness sometimes took several applications.
Herman, the manufacturer suggested that the tissue used to wipe the excess Optrix may have been treated with a chemical softening agent or perhaps may have been made from recylced paper stock although I was careful to use the recommended untreated Kleenex tissue. He did not think the cloudiness should affect sonics. However I am not taking any chances and therefore have since stopped treating discs.
