Some finger prints leave a permanent mark but I'm finding that most are pretty well eliminated by the combination of Disc Doctor fluid, steam, reagent grade rince, and the VPI 16.5. All these things together contribute and honestly marks hardly ever persist. The steam and Disc Doctor break it up. The Disc Doctor emulsifies it. The steam and reagent grade water rince it and the DD fluid away. The vacuum sucks it up to almost completely dry. I then allow the disc to sit in a dish rack to completely dry before sticking it in a MoFI sleeve. Pretty much all that doesn't come off are scratches and sleeve scuff.
