Personally I go for thirty seconds but I suspect the fettling process is
probably over in the first few seconds. You'd really have to be trying
in order to shag the disc I'd say, it isn't even remotely bendy after a
good four minutes.
Looks-wise it (obviously) won't shift scratches but it sure as hell gets
fingerprints and stains off and leaves the printed side virginal. |
