To be honest Phil, I'd be more concerned about cavitating the label side than anything else - it's probably the most effective way of knackering discs.

Just use a small drop of washing up liquid and then rinse under the tap!

Make sure it’s audiophile washing up liquid though for the best sound quality. :alien:

The device has arrived. :)

It seems glasses (spectacles) with plastic, or coated lens, cannot be put in for ultrasonic cleaning - BUM. :lol:

That would rule out CD's then I would think.
Little known fact, coherent thought can destructively interfere with itself leaving no thought at all, that’s why I prefer incoherent thought.

Definitely don't try putting that in there, for all sorts of reasons !

Try an old CD first Phil that you are not that bothered about. Rest the CD on something soft as you don't want it rattling about in there.
