Hard water and washing CDs

Does the type of recommended CD detergent matter if I have hard water?

Re: Hard water and washing CDs

  • Not really, although some people have complained about using Charlie's with hard water.?

    It is just extra important (imo) to make sure you are using a residue free detergent. The hard water leaves minerals behind on its own, and you don't need to make it worse with residue-leaving detergent :)

    Crunchy Clean is great! We currently use Planet because it's locally available at the natural foods co-op store.

    HTH?

  • I think you just have to give it a shot. I have very hard water and we use Ecos detergent. We used to use Charlie's but it gave Ethan a really bad bootie rash. I find that if I just do a few SUPER hot rinses (turn the water heater ALL THE WAY UP) every month-2 months, I don't get build-up and everything is fine.

    BTW, I'm in Indiana, too! YAY HOOSIERS! Or are you a Boilermaker?! hahaha! I'm an IU Alumna!
