All I had to do was push in the cloth wrapped around the card and go back in forth. Stay well and enjoy it now! J macbook pro, Mac OS X (10.6.4)Īfter using my debit card and a cloth that came with my sunglasses, it was clean. The drive will work perfectly and like new You don't need to insert it so much since the lens is not so deep inside.

Wrap the cloth around the credit card, then while holding the ends of the the cloth insert few centimeters from the front of the credit card covered with the cloth in the optical drive, push and pull a bit and that's about it. What you need is a business card or a credit card + iPhone cleaning cloth (other similar cleaning cloth that's thin and doesn't leave marks for example for cleaning glasses).
