ScratchOut's competition falls into two categories:

• Chemical Softeners
• Mechanical Smoothers

Chemical Softeners
In general, products such as Memorex OptiFix or Maxell Disc Fixer are manufactured from petroleum-based chemical distillate's which are applied to the surface of an optical disc. The concept behind chemical softeners is that once the product is applied to a plastic material composing CD's and DVD's, the product softens the top several molecular layers effectively melting away impeding portions of the damaged media.

All-in-all, chemical softeners are only moderately effective in reducing minor hairline scratches on CD's and DVD's. However, such softeners are virtually ineffective in repairing the moderate to heavy scratching seen by the average consumer through everyday use.

Mechanical Smoothers
The most popular mechanical smoother is the SkipDR/GameDR manufactured by Digital Innovations which operates in exactly the same fashion as all other mechanical smoothers sold by various companies. Essentially, a CD or DVD is placed onto a disposable paper towel or cloth, wetted with a lightweight solution or distilled water, and then snapped onto mechanical spindle and spun for several minutes a very slow speed.

Mechanical grinders can be effective but they do not allow for spot treatment of individual scratches - so it could take up to 10 different attempts over the entire surface to remove even a moderate scratch.

The final result? ScratchOut outperforms both of these product types or formats, both in pricing and results. This gives your consumers significant reason to choose it over what is presently on retail shelves.

ScratchOut is THE MOST EFFECTIVE product on the market for repairing scratched CD's and DVD's!
