Best Disc Repair Kits of 2025

"I had a half inch scratch on my favorite GD show disc, but after using this product, it was gone! I was skeptical at first, but with a bit more effort during application, it worked wonders. No visible scratches and no skips at all! I'm so impressed, I'm ordering a backup now!"

"I bought this to try and save a PlayStation 3 disc, but it unfortunately didn’t work for me. I wouldn’t recommend wasting your money."

"I attempted to fix scratches on a CD-ROM using various DIY methods, but they failed. However, this product worked like a charm on the first try, allowing me to install my old software again!"

"I was surprised this worked so well. Every disc I tried was fixed! I followed the instructions carefully, starting with a cotton pad and alcohol, and then used the microfiber cloth as directed. It’s a fun process, and I really hope it lasts!"

"I received this item yesterday. The cleaning device was in its original box, and I was eager to try it out. After using it on a couple of DVDs, the first one played perfectly after cleaning. The second had a few skips, but I think another pass will fix it completely. Great product for my hard-to-find collection!"

"I just got this and immediately tested it on an old scratched DVD. I followed the directions, and after using the buffing feature and repair feature twice, I now have a like-new working DVD! Thanks for this amazing product!"

"I initially started with the hand-cranked version due to its lower cost and my skepticism about its effectiveness. However, after using it on several DVDs, I was pleasantly surprised by the results. I decided to upgrade to the motorized version since we have a large collection of children's movies. This model is so much better because it's hands-free, allowing me to keep it wet while it works. I’ve used it on numerous discs, and most now play smoothly. It’s definitely worth the investment!"

"I have had mixed experiences with this device. While it performed well on some CDs, it completely ruined a DVD that was partially readable before. The abrasive wheel left severe marks, making it unreadable. I tried to follow the instructions closely, but the results were disappointing for that particular disc. I wouldn’t recommend it for valuable DVDs."

"This is a decent tool for disc recovery. I managed to restore several CDs that were unplayable before. However, it’s important to understand that if the scratches are too deep, this tool may not be able to fix them completely. Overall, it does a good job for minor scratches, but I wish it included a power supply."

"I found it easy to use for cleaning and repairing discs. I highly recommend it!"

"I was a bit hesitant since there were no instructions provided. I really didn't want to take chances with my discs."

"This is a nice little kit! I'm using it to help my grandson learn how to take care of his DVDs."

"I already used it on a disc that wasn't playing well. After just one use, the disc was fine!"

"I've thoroughly enjoyed doing business with this company."

"This cleaner works wonders for renewing DVDs; as long as the foil is intact, my discs look like new!"

"I initially sought a rubbing compound for damaged CDs, but I found this product works perfectly with just a cloth and some effort."

"I honestly didn't believe I could recover my old CDs, but thanks to this JFJ machine, they've come back to life. I highly recommend it, and if you want the best results, just follow the manufacturer's instructions. Avoid using 600 and 1200 grit sandpaper on audio CDs, as it can permanently damage them; polishing alone is sufficient."

"This product is fantastic! I experienced great customer service and felt I received excellent value for my money. Everything works just as described!"

"Having tried numerous optical media repair machines, I must say that the JFJ offers the best quality for the price. Unlike others, it doesn’t use liquid polish, which can dry up and create a mess. It requires a little more effort with its three-step process, but the results are worth it. Plus, the cost of consumables is much lower than with other machines. I recommend practicing with less valuable discs first."

“I’ve found that the products work excellently with the machine to repair and resurface disks. They're definitely worth the money compared to replacing scratched or damaged disks. Plus, the packaging is great to avoid leaks.”

“I love my JFJ repair machine. It saves me a lot of money, and I appreciate how easy it is to buy replacement supplies. My Autistic son is hard on discs, so this has been a lifesaver for us.”

“After about six months, I had to resupply my products. I use it moderately, and this stuff is the best. Just a tip: don’t clean mini discs with it, and you’ll be fine.”

"I found that it worked very well for my needs, but I decided to add super glue for extra strength."

"I used a product like this years ago and loved it. I was thrilled to discover this works just as well! I've had severely damaged discs from acquiring CDs from friends who've switched to streaming, and I've successfully repaired most of them. My advice: If possible, invest in a bench buffer with a buffing wheel and polish wheel for the worst cases. It takes practice to learn the right pressure to avoid "burning" the disc, but once you've mastered it, this product can truly restore discs you thought were beyond saving."

"My son uses this to fix his older video games, and it really does the job. We enjoy playing our PS2 for nostalgia, and we've had the original games for almost 16 years. The games get scratched and become unplayable, but this product safely buffs out the scratches, allowing us to keep enjoying our games."

"I purchased this Disc Restorer to fix a tiny scratch on a DVD. I followed the instructions carefully, using the cloth that came with it. To my shock, I found several new small scratches all over the disc after using the product. Initially, I thought they were just superficial marks, but they were actual new scratches. I'm furious because now a DVD from a boxed set is ruined. I missed the return window because I didn’t try it right away, assuming it wouldn’t damage my discs. I urge you not to buy this. If you do, make sure to test it immediately to avoid wasting your money."
