Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Works with games, but not with DVD for me.
I've used this to fix about 6 of my Xbox video games. One was so badly scratched I didn't think it would ever play. I had to run through the procedure about 5 times, but after that the game has played flawlessly. It doesn't remove scratches, but it improves them enough to make it readable. Unfortunately I tried this on a DVD and it made it unplayable. I don't know why. But it has worked great on games for me.
Rating:  - I miss it
I had this for years, and it saved many, many CD's, CDrom's, and DVD's which had some mild scratching. I'm shocked at the negative reviews- the only thing I can think is that they did not use it properly. It requires a lot of water, and after the wheel has been used for a while it tends not to work well. It is only something you do AFTER your CD isn't working, so there is no way it could really "ruin" it (as the CD is already ruined!).
Rating:  - Try toothpaste & hairspray instead - it's cheaper and quicker.
I was psyched to fix the disks that made my stereo want to cry as they played one note over and over like a song at a bad rave.
You have to spend too much time on each disk if you want to fix your whole collection, or even part of it in one sitting. I made it through 10 disks before giving up (and my hands getting sore) the first night.
The product essentially works like this: it comes with a tiny spray bottle, and you crank the handle as the disc turns VERY SLOWLY, and ... Read More
Rating: - Thanks For The Warning
I almost bought this product, but there are too many negatives attached to it.
I went ahead and bought the $8.50 CD Fix It Kit (sold on Amazon)due to one 5 star rating. If it doesn't work, I'll try something else.
I have a movie soundtrack CD that got down on the floor of my car and ended up under the floormat....face down. It got stepped on a lot. I wanted to hear it tonight, so I put a thin coat of Vaseline on it, wiped enough off so that my player could recognize there ... Read More
Rating: - Does exactly what the name implies
I've been using the SkipDoctor products since they were first released. Some CDs are simply too far gone, but the majority of discs can be repaired to a readable state (assuming your player isn't overly sensitive). The biggest problem with the manual product is that it takes quite a while to rotate the disc through the course of the polishing. Your arm will get tired, but the result is usually worth it. I wouldn't use it on a disc that doesn't have any problems, but if you're trying to salvage something ... Read More
