It removes all kinds of stuff (especially adhesives) and usually will not harm paint or plastic (although I haven't tried it on a diskette). Mine came from Turtle Wax, but there are other brands. But your real problem is that you're not using removable labels. I don't know if they're made specifically for disks, but you can get generic ones at office-supply stores, in various shapes and sizes. ================== zaphod@madnix.UUCP (Ron Bean) {harvard|rutgers|ucbvax}!uwvax!astroatc!nicmad!madnix!zaphod
