In the brand new condition, DVD players work like superb, they never show any picture distortions neither skip frames. With use, the discs shall start wearing down and that is when a DVD player starts showing signs of strain. Distorted video and audio, cracking in the background are just a few of the problems. If you are thinking of giving the disc a clean then hold on, it most probably is the player at fault. As with any electronic device, your player is susceptible to dust and grime which, takes away from its performance.

A once a month cleaning round will really light up your player, keeping it at its best condition all the time. To do this, you will have to clean both the outside and the inside of the device. Just a word of caution, ensure that you unplug it first and that you use an easily accessible place to clean.

Alcohol is best at giving a shine to a metallic surface while seltzer water does great at removing large amounts of dirt. In order to clean the player’s exterior, you can use either of the two solutions. Just take a swab of cotton and dip it in alcohol or carbonated water and swipe away. Be careful not to use the swab for the vent openings, instead dust it gently.

To clean the vent openings or grill, take a clean cloth and wipe it to remove free dust. Next, use a air blower, hair dryer or canned air to clean the dust clinging to the grills. It is essential to keep the vent clean as the DVD player will dissipate all of its heat via this opening.

Once in a while, the interior might need servicing. To do this, the easiest technique is to use a DVD cleaning disc that comes with a tiny brush on its surface which, swipes the DVD player’s lens clean from the inside. Such lens cleaning discs come cheap and are easily available in the market.

Occasionally, it may not be sufficient to just use a cleaning disc; in which case a more detailed clean will be required. In order to do this, the player will have to be opened up. This can be done by turning it upside in order to unscrew the base and remove it. An alcohol swab can be used to thoroughly clean everything inside the DVD player except the circuit board, which can be cleaned using compressed air. Any out of the way places can also be cleaned with compressed air and once everything is dry, the DVD player can be reassembled.

By maintaining the player you not only get great picture and sound quality all the time but also reduce the wear and tear that borne by DVDs. A monthly clean is ideal.
