Hello!

Which is better to clean DVD's with. 70% Isopropyl alcohol or 91 %, or 99%?

I have read different opinions on this. What do you think?

I've used all three and didn't notice a difference although I strictly use 99% now because I can get it for free :)

thanks... I can't find the 99% at CVS, they only have 91%. I have been using 70% for the last 6 months. I recently read on the internet not to use rubbing alcohol for some reason. It said I should use 99%. Then I read today that it is better to use alcohol/water combination... who who knows? Anyway, where can I buy the 99%?
