is there a disc scratch repairer that works?

POSTED BY: jasmin49 1 month, 2 weeks ago

ive just bought a so called perfect condition dvd set off here, but the first disc has some scratches which caused my dvd played to crash, it wouldnt even open! N.e.way I bought a repair kit before and it just seemed to melt the disc as it was unplayable after, so was wondering if anyones actually had any good results and can recommend one, thanks

I found Gamestation a bit hit and miss really. The ones they did seem to 'cure' lasted about 2 days then the old probs came back.

Prevention is always better than cure so I now use these.... www.dskinuk.com clip them on and you can play or even burn with them still attached!!!

You can buy a tube of cream which you buff away on the disc and it fixes a lot of issues. Search on ebay it's got "disc repair" on the side and is orange an blue coloured.

I'd post a link but I dont think you can on ebay. I always have a tube of this stuff in a drawer for these kind of emergencies.
