Furniture polish vs. Walker ultra vivid on cd's


I have been using furniture polish on my cd's for a couple years now. I have been happy with the more analog sound it creates. Better focus, less harsh and such.

I never knew what the expensive products such as Walker ultra vivid and others would be like in comparison. I figured at 68 times more expensive the Walker type products have to be better.

Well, I finally bought some Walker ultra vivid and was eager to see what I've been missing the last couple years. My wife actually did the comparison with me. We did this using a cd cleaner to reclean the cd afterwards and did the comparison several times to verify our findings of the two products.

It was intersting, but my wife said it first that the Walker did not sound as good. She said it even before I had a chance to say it first that the female voice on one of the songs had a harshness. I agreed with the same findings. Simply, the Walker was more fatigueing with the digital brightness.

Now, I would have liked to of tried several of the other types of cd fluids during this same time, but I at least knew that the furniture polish over the last two years was not a waste of time.

I am curious if anyone has tried something that works good like furniture polish or did some type of comparisons.

furniture polish or anything that will lift grim or anything sticky will eventually eat the factory laquer.

Jgiacalo,

I have actually wanted to compare a couple different furniture polishes I have in my home theater but have not. I have settled Old English due to it being a bit thicker then others. Pledge may be a bit easier to wipe off.

I don't buy that furniture polish eats the factory laquer. I remember reading so many years ago in those home tips type books and they where recommending furniture polish on cds for helping if you have cd's that skip. I know someone years ago using it for that purpose and the cd's are still good from what I been informed.

I suppose if your a maker of these cd fluid type products you may say that it eats laquer on cds. It basically just puts a protective wax coating on it.

One thing, how do we know that the cd fluid products manufactured don't have anything in them that could do damage to the cd 10 years down the road.

All these cd treatments on the market are relatively new. The only true way to maybe be safe is nothing at all, but whats the fun in that.
