Take off the bulk with a soft cloth and something flat but not sharp.
Then rub off the rest using a clean part of the cloth.


Remembering, of course, to rub only in a radial direction (that is, in a
line between the center of the disc and the edge) and not
concentrically, for that, as we all know, is how CD read errors are
generated.
