Hey guys...long time since I've been around the MR forums, but I need your help. I've been abroad for about six months (in India, specifically), and my iBook G4 has handled the travel like a champ. Unfortunately, I've been having problems burning CDs of late. Every audio CD I burn skips, and I suspect that the heavy dust and pollution that hits every indian city has finally taken its toll.

SO...the question is, what's the best way to clean a combo drive? Compressed air isn't too easy to find, but I can find those little CD-cleaning kits all over. What would do the least damage?
