yeah just get a regular lens cleaning kit

don't be fooled or tricked into spending more money because a product claims to be made exclusively for blu ray

DO NOT get a cleaning kit

1- They do not work with slot loads
2- Cleaning kits do nothing useful but potentially damage your laser. DO NOT EVER USE ONE.

If your system needs to be cleaned and you don't know how to do it, take it to a professional 99 times out of 100 it won't be because the lens got dirty

Can we get a straight answer on this? I'm in the same boat and I don't want to damage my PS3.
