NEDIS Disk Lens Cleaner with Ultra-Thin Brush & 20ml Cleaning Liquid for Home, Office & Car CD Player

Two of my cd players were skipping and some cds were not even registering, purchased this to see if it would help and now no skipping and the cds that did not even register work fineFor me this is excellent and saved renewing cd playersOnly thing that is useful to know is that you need to put a needle or similar into the liquid dispenser to pierce it for first time use, if you don’t and squeeze really hard it will go everywhereWorth a few quid to try before replacing kit or cds

Purchased this product after much reading and my Philips CD 723 lens etc in much need of clean in twenty plus years yes I know. Moving on It worked but not first go ?? iniially I got CD not finalised twice 3rd 4th & 5th time just got lots of skipping however since then its seems to be working fine and I can cler hear the difference I will leave it now for month or so and use again maybe difference will not be as noticable.I was readying myself to send this back..... Jury is out for this one wish could be more positive

Bought this because my CD was popping and stalling, and I hadn't cleaned the lens for ages - CD player was unusable.Instructions were simple enough: you have to put the disc in the drive and then hear the on-disc instructions. Can be difficult if the lens is as mucky as mine was, but persevere!Use a pin to piece the bottle: put a drop on each of the brushes then insert the disc. Track 1 will say 'go to track # for more instructions for your language (track 2 for English).It only takes about 1 minute.The first run of disc cleaning showed some improvement but was still not too good.I removed the disc, put on some more drops of fluid and tried again. It worked again, was better but still not brilliant.Simply (especially if your lens is as messy as mine was) it takes time! I ran the disc, with more fluid each time, for about 10 runs, and now my CD works fine! Much cheaper than having it repaired or replaced!The moral is, don't expect miracles on the first usage, be prepared to use the disc several times, and don't let your lens get filthy! I will now use the disc to clean all my CD drives every few months.Conclusion? I recommend it. It is cheap and works.PS my player is a BOSE Wave with 'post box' slot - the disc pops in okay and out too, but can be fiddly to insert or eject, but again, don't give up , just follow your machines guide how to shift stuck discs.

This was the usual CD type laser lens cleaner, two short brush tufts let into a CD, on which you apply the supplied cleaning fluid. That's the first problem, the liquid just runs off like water. On inspecting the brush tufts, they do not appear to be of a material which would soak up the fluid. You then play the CD, and the brushes clean the laser lens. After several passes, I found some improvement, in that some CD's which wouldn't play before, now did, but not all, but it did show me that it was the cleaning of the lens that was needed, I put some of the cleaning fluid on a new soft cotton bud, and manually cleaned the lens....guess what...success! My good quality, but pretty old CD player now plays everything again. 3 stars for the liquid...not much for the disc.

Needed this. Great, but make sure you remove pointed lid, don't just squeeze first

As with many of these CD head cleaners, it simply doesn’t work. The liquid is just water. Makes absolutely no difference. The brushes are way too stiff to make any meaningful contact with the entire lens. Another reviewer has pointed out, you are better with a cloth or cotton bud and some good ISO octane style cleaner.

EDITWhilst the first CD played properly, the player spat out the second one repeatedly. I am now running the cleaning CD for a second time!Delighted with this product which has restored my 25 year old mini CD system to use. The instruction leaflet was vague, to say the least. Unlike a previous reviewer who found the bottle of fluid needed to be pierced, mine was ready to go, and I put a couple of drops on the brushes. The biggest issue was trying to get the player to recognise the CD. It spat it out about 10 times before it finally recognised it, and the display showed 14 tracks. I pressed Play and off it went. I expected silence but what you actually get is 14 short tracks of muzak, interspersed with instructions in various languages. At the end of the 14 tracks, I removed the CD and inserted one from my collection and - hurrah! - the player recognised it and it is playing as we speak! So happy because I thought my system was destined for the tip. I’ve knocked one star off just because the instructions were so poor, but I’d recommend people to give it a go before discarding a previous CD player.

Excellent CD/DVD cleaning kit at a competitive price
