Do It Yourself Dvd Repair

Do-it-yourself DVD repair


In many cases, a DVD can be repaired using convenient do-it-yourself techniques. For heavy scratches, a cleaner such as Brasso can effectively be used to repair a DVD. For lighter scratches, household products such as toothpaste or a banana can be used to repair a DVD.


Instructions


Using Brasso


1. Put some Brasso onto a clean cloth.


2. Take the cloth with Brasso and rub it onto the scratched DVD’s surface in a circular motion. Once the scratches have disappeared, clean the Brasso off the DVD with water.


3. Air-dry the DVD and then test it in a DVD player.


Using Toothpaste


4. Put toothpaste on a clean cloth.


5. Take the cloth with Brasso and rub it onto the scratched DVD’s surface in a circular motion. Once the scratches have mostly disappeared, clean the toothpaste off the DVD with water.


6. Air-dry the DVD and then test it in a DVD player.


Using a Banana


7. Cut a piece off the banana.


8. Take the banana and rub it onto the scratched DVD’s surface in a circular motion. Then take the peel of the banana and rub it onto the DVD’s surface.


9. Rub the banana residue into the DVD’s scratches while cleaning it with a cloth. Then clean the DVD’s surface with glass cleaner. Once dry, test it in a DVD player.
