Doug.....have you used these gizmos regularly and do they work well??? Do they scratch at all??? SHort story -- I recently went to blockbuster to rent a movie.....after spending 15 minutes looking for something taht my 3.5 year old son could watch as well (with him in tow...talk about FUN!), I went to the counter and checked out....On my way out I decided to check the disk...all scratches and looked like someone left PIZZA SAUCE on it.....yum. So I went back in and pointed this out.....turns out the second copy they had had the SAME PROBLEMS..... I complained and they said "Well, we send disks back to be resurfaced if anyone complains about the playback." I got my money back and left.....bummed out....if all they need to do is run it through a gizmo like this why dont they!???!??!!?!?! SO, now, I look at all my discs even closer than ever.....I was thinking about one of these gizmos but worried that they could cause more damage than they fix..... Thoughts? : : Thanks for your help can you just use soap and water : There are cleaners made especially for DVDs, that don't leave a residue. More important is the motion you use to clean them. Most manufacturers recommend a radial motion, from the center toward the edges, rather than a circular motion. Discwasher makes a little machine that automatically produces the correct motion. : Regards, : Doug Graham
