Do you know how to wash your hands? If you do, then you should be
able to figure out how to apply soap to a CD.
Do you truly need more detailed instructions?
Do you need some kind of instructional video?

When I wash my hands I rub vigouously using a bar of Dial - I'm sure
that was not what was meant.

Dial is a soap that seems to safely and effectively cleans CDs, when used
with appropriate amounts of water, of course.

Ivory Liquid also works. Dozens of perfectly ordinary cleaners work fine.
I
think it is good that people be warned that the protective coating on the
back of the CD is both very critical to the useful life of the CD, and
that
per industry standards, it's lacquer. Lacquer is attacked by a lot of
different organic solvents, including various alcohols.

This is all correct.
