How do you clean the media itself? Will a clean paper towel work or is
some other procedure required?
After removing the magnetic disk I use denatured ethyl alcohol and a soft
lintless cotton cloth to wipe it down. Paper towns are too abrasive, use soft
cotton, preferably lintless. Work on top of a cotton cloth also.
If there is dirt or other abrasives I would rinse this off with water and do
the final drying with the alcohol wipe.
I have used a head cleaning diskette jacket as a holder for the truly floppy
disk at this point.
I do not think you can successfully dry out a wet jacket very well, better to
discard it.
