I'm not sure how to remove a label from a CD. I bought a Playstation CD from a video store that is going out of business(hate to see-but....) and it has a heavy duty "property of..." label on the front. Has anyone remove these before? What about that stuff they sell in the commercials and on HSN? Can't remember the exact name but it is supposed to remove anything like that without damaging the item. Does it work? Any suggestions? I don't want to scratch it-besides it's got great art on the front

Lighter fluid!
wet a chunk of papr towel with the fluid, and let it soak the label ... test after a few minutes and if it's not loose, add more fluid. Eventually it will get to the adhesive, especially if y0u slowly loosen the label and let the lighter fluid get under the edges.

We use 'Goo-Gone' on all our CD cases and marker and sticker residue and EVERYthing comes right off. Available now in a store near you!

If you don't have any GooGone or lighter fluid around the house, the best thing to use is mayonaise. The acid in it helps dissolve the adhesive, and the oil keeps it from resticking. Just spread it on and let it sit for an hour or so. Sounds crazy, but it works. I used this once on an apartment bathtub, to remove the adhesive from those non-stick things in the tub.
