Sure, bake the disks (I'm sure you know how to do this), then just before reading, coat the surface with a thin coat of cyclomethicone (the stuff has almost no surface tension, so a couple of drops works). It lubricates the surface temporarily; long enough to get a good read. Eventually, it evaporates, leaving you with the original surface. I've used it successfully on those wretched Wabash 5.25" floppies. I use the stuff on tapes as well. --Chuck
