CD Scratch Repair Kits


I buy a lot of used CDs on the internet and was wondering if
anyone has found a good system to remove CD surface scratches without doing excessive damage to entire CD surface? I would only use this if CD surface had many scratches or heaven forbid actually had a skip. Anyone tried the Skip Doctor?

I have also used the Skip Doctor on scratched and skipping CD's. It is a pain to use but it works. I usually use either the auric illuminator or automotive plastic polish kiton the easy scratches. I also tested the skip doctor on a new Reference Recordings CD and compared it to another new one. If you fully polish the CD I could detect no loss due to the poishing.
The Maplshade Microsmooth works great.My friend had 6 discs that either skip or don't read.I treated them with this product{3 times per disc} and the skips and optical read problems were gone.This stuff does wonders on all CDs and improves th sound quality on CDRs {treated before recording}.It's like polishing silver,in fact it is a polish.An abrassive agent suspended in a lubricant.Just polish and rinse under a water source,dry-PRESTO!
If you are considering this product,contact me and I may have a lead.
I hope the recommendation that the Skip Dr. works are right. Due to the previous threads, I just went on line and ordered it. I primarily wanted it for my 7 year old son's computer games which are no longer readable.

Thanks

Obviously, it will depend on how badly they are scratched. In one case, the aluminzed layer was gouged out and no amount of polishing could fix that. But otherwise, it has fixed every CD or CD-ROM I've tried it on.
