DiscGuard2™ - A Technological Breakthrough Invisible Disc Sealer Formula For All Disc Formats Imagine, having no more unplayable discs and wasted money to contend with because your discs are scratched. Well that is now possible from ProLine, a longtime producer of Accessories & Media Packaging for the Home Entertainment and Computer Environment. The Company has introduced a new development for an invisible disc coating that makes the data side of all disc formats more scratch resistant. The formulation, named DiscGuard2™, is a liquid compound of special emulsifiable resins that simply buffs on and off the disc. The oxygen-activated molecules left on the disc surface produces a clear layer that allows the laser-read data to be enhanced for correct reproduction while forming a shield of protection over a short period of time without restricting immediate disc use. A hard, protective, glass-like coating guards against accidental scratching and fingerprints during disc handling. Application of the formula requires two small drops costing just pennies per disc while repeated use increases the durability of the disc. Should a disc be subjected to unusual handling, the coating previously applied takes most of the abuse while preserving the data content embedded in the disc. Disc damage of this nature can be removed from the hard coating and a new application can be reapplied for continued protection prolonging the life of the disc. DiscGuard2™ is a versatile, effective solution for use on all disc formats, including, DVDs, Game Discs, Music Discs, Software Titles, Photo CDs, Recordable Discs, CD or DVD Roms as well as similar media. When an unprotected disc becomes scratched, still framing is experienced with video images while audio signals will produce a skipping or fast repeating sound because the scratch on the disc surface is deflecting the laser pickup from reading the disc data. These error-producing types of scratches must be removed from the disc’s original top lacquer coating to make the disc usable again. Very deep scratches will tend to make discs irreparable and the data irretrievable forever. There have been many misconceptions with deep scratches or poorly manufactured discs being identified as Disc Rot as if mold was eating away the disc, which is nothing more than mis-understandings of laser deflection. Well-maintained discs that are preserved will last a lifetime. Many offerings of disc scratch removers are available on the market with some requiring rubbing out scratches while others are using an abrasive micro sanding material that actually removes the lacquer coating each time they are used. When this type of sanding mechanism is used the disc becomes more vulnerable to future scratches. DiscGuard2™ will add back a resilient disc seal to the disc surface that protects the data in the disc. ProLine’s DiscGuard2™ is now available in a complete kit that includes a disc-gripping applicator base, two soft application and buffing cloths along with a 2 fluid ounce bottle of the formula for conditioning over 200 discs at $16.95. An 8 fluid ounce bottle that provides protection for over 800 discs is also available for large disc collections at $39.95.
