L. Armstrong, glue prob, Complete Hot 5 and Hot 7

I just pulled out my copy of Louie Armstrong "The Complete Hot 5 and Hot 7 recordings."

The 4 discs reside in paper pockets that are glued to the case. The glue has migrated to the discs or the discs have slid over to contact the glue. In any case I have glue on the discs. It is still sticky and does not want to come up with gentle rubbing. I've contacted Sony and expect a replacement, but I thought if you had the set you might want to check it.

the goo gone would work, and it not really that strong, it is a citrus based oil, and will not harm plastic.

I actually had forgotten about this but a new copy arrived in the mail today from Sony. Evidently I wasn't the only one with this problem as they changed the package so they are in conventional, snap-in, plastic trays, not paper pockets.

Have you ever bought a cd where the price tag is stuck directly on the cd jewel case? You try to remove the price tag, and of course, the price tag comes off, but the glue remains. Sucks doesn't it? Here's a trick I use to take off difficult adhesive: Get yourself a piece of duct tape or other strong adhesive tape. Use the sticky side of the tape to pull the stuck on adhesive off the jewel case. Repeat until all the adhesive is removed. It works like a charm! Give it a try!

Actually Goo Gone WILL Dissolve some plastics, so be careful. Isopropyl Alcohol would be better.
