How To Clean LaserDisc's

[@krystinbogan3239]

Very informative! Thanks!

You’re welcome

I'm going to try out the Novus cleaners. They're cheap on Amazon. One thing about cleaning discs though is I've always read to wipe from the center of the disc going straight out. I bought Karate Kid 2 not long ago and the audio had some occasional static. I cleaned it off with rubbing alcohol and it got rid of it.

Would love to see a beta mold cleaning video too

[@thebetamaxman8905]

If I get one that is moldy I’ll do a video on that

[@williamwilson480]

I got sponges and fingerprints on my laserdiscs I think I'll try this thank you very much😇

Was that Ice Cream example a reference to Devo’s Laserdisc Promo vid?

[@thebetamaxman8905]

[@Cherry-r4o]

Even the LD is old is that fine ?

[@thebetamaxman8905]

Yeah

[@kenpope5798]

Paper towel? I would have thought that that was too abrasive?

[@thebetamaxman8905]

it works great

I agree , use a terry cloth instead , I been collecting laserdisc since the 1980s , I never clean them this way , I clean them from the center out in a straight line , never had a problem

does cleaning fix popcorn sounds like?

[@thebetamaxman8905]

What do you mean

[@kenichiallen]

@@thebetamaxman8905 mine when I play it, theres a part where the sound sounds like a popcorn popping..

[@thebetamaxman8905]

if the audio sounds bad on the laserdisc it has what is known as laser rought

[@kenichiallen]

@@thebetamaxman8905 so there's no remedy for that sir?

[@thomashenry691]

My scream laserdisc is really dirty the only one but my back to the future 3 I think is laser rot because when I play it there is spots on the screen that is why I got another copy

[@thebetamaxman8905]

your correct it has laser rought

[@laserdiscdude8084]

I have a request, can you make a rant on a youtuber named Andy Summers THX cinema and cats because he puts LaserDiscs in the cat litter box and make a rant about that please?

[@thebetamaxman8905]

maybe

[@elpablo4003]

Does this video really need to be 22 minutes long?

[@thebetamaxman8905]

No it doesn’t but I guess I just ramble on to match sorry
