just use your breath to fog it, and use a 100% cotton towel, or a microfiber towel.

you can use glasses cleaner and it will clean the cd's

toilet paper and tissues are made from, well, paper.

paper is made out of wood, which scratches the CD surface. (unless the tissues are the cotton kind)

Toilet paper is alot more abrasive then paper towels are.

But your right either way, they make a cloth for cleaning your glasses and its what should he used on CD/DVD's.

Paper towels are far more abrasive then toilet paper is, I've seen paper towels scratch freshly burned CD's and then have used toilet paper on another fresh burn leaving behind no scratches.

They make a cloth for cleaning the lenses of you glasses and you should use that for CD's as well.

but if you dont need glasses you probably dont have such cloth, good toilet paper should be good. it doesnt leave as many fibers as tissues

no but its worth the 2$ it costs to get one of the cloths. Its the best thing to use when cleaning your camera lense, glasses lense's and cd's/dvd's.

Its a very nice cloth and never scratches. So yea, invest the two bucks.

Our microscopes had an oil immersion lense that your not supposed to pass across the slide only to it from the left and then back to its original position. Some dingus in my group was careless and did it right infront of the teacher and we all had to write

We will follow all instructions 1000 times lol.
