| Floppy disk drive cleaning question. |
Posted by: JRL on 2009-07-21 10:55:20 So I bought a NOS floppy disk drive cleaning disk with cleaning liquid. Problem is that the cleaning liquid bottle won't dispense liquid. > 🙁
Should I be able to use water instead?

Posted by: JRL on 2009-07-21 11:35:35 Alright, thanks. 🙂 Which concentration of rubbing alcohol is the best? (99% or 91%)

Posted by: Osgeld on 2009-07-21 12:39:07 the lower the percentage the higher the water content, I would recommend 99%
But in reality whatever you have should be ok, just let it dry off
