will this work on badly scratched up disks such as those for pc

Your determination of badly is ambiguious. I have one with contents for cleaning and repair, 2 seperate procedures. Which ever one that I use in a particular case the end results vary. I have had CD's & DVD's with various types of severity in the damage. I can honestly say that this piece of equipment works fairly well for me most all of the time. But it does not peform miracles. I don't know exactly how bad your damage or scratches are, but for putting out a few bucks, it will probably be worth it in the future. Sorry about the first answer being sent before I finished it, typo error. Hope this answer gives you enough information for you to make a formable decision. Good Luck

I have only had my case for a short time so I only have a limited experience but I don't see this to be a problem. If you handle the disc properly. Any scratches would result from you mishandling the disc, not the storage device.

Yes, it will work for that. You will be able to see where you used it. I would just use a small amount on the scratches.

Yes it will work just fine. I just tried it on my old Windows XP machine. After you plug it in, give it a couple of minutes to download the driver and recognize the drive.

Check your disc's first to see if there are scratches. Chances are it is not the disc's fault it is the type of burner you are using .

I did not have good luck with this product.. I even tried to use on scuffed DVDs and it did not make any improvement at all.

As long as you can carefully insert the disc sideways into the slot you have no chance of scratching the disc. The slot is wide enough so that shouldn't be a problem. It really is a very easy system to use

Yes it can, Except for DVDs and Aufio CDs, but I've replaced the DVD drive from my old Xbox console, swapped the tray cover from scratched to non-scratched

Wipe the disc with a clean cotton cloth and water. Play in a different player. Wait until the disc is really scratched up and completely unplayable before using the device to resurface and polish. It is a one time fix.

I have used this on CDs and Wii games with pretty significant scratches. I have had 50/50 luck with them, when I've literally let it run for 20-30 minutes while sitting next to it and spraying the disc to keep it wet. If you're using an adapter for power and don't mind babysitting it, it's worth it to me. As to how long it will last... if you're meaning how long the device itself lasts, I had mine for 2 years before the plastic cogs that turn the disc wore down too much to spin anymore, and that was using it about once a month.

Who knows, but I just cleaned two games that wouldn't read in the player, and they're working now. I think it depends on like mentioned, if the users are following the directions exactly, and also how badly damaged/scratched the discs are. I'm sure there's some that just won't fix, and well, we all know, you can't fix stupid.

The disc cleaner will clean any disc with-out harm , just make sure you have A new cleaning wheel on the machine ! It cleans any disc of smudges or any small particles on your disc .I've been using A disc cleaner for about 20yrs , no problems !

If you have problems with scratched CDs, you really need something that is "optical" quality. The CDs plastic is soft. You try looking into "Brillianize" for your CDs. It cleans and does light polishing for a reasonable price.

As long as the hard drive itself is not damaged, then you should be just fine. If the problem is the operating system or something where you can't boot your computer to access the files, then this product should work great for you. I have used it on about 4 different hard drives and the only time it did not work was when the hard drive itself was damaged. The other 3 times, it worked just fine. It was WELL worth the money I paid for it.

I have not used the product for CD Scratches, however it may be worth a try. Try on a disc you do not want to keep if it does not work.
