Removing Very Deep Scratches with the JFJ Easy Pro Disc Resurfacer
Вставка

- This video I put the JFJ Easy Pro to the test to see how deep of scratches it can really fix. I put some deep scratches onto a disc rendering it completely unusable. Lets see if the JFJ Easy Pro will make this game work.
*7:28** No has ever been that excited to see the EA logo*
I hink he got scared
No *one
Ea was good back then
Bro nearly creamed his pants
Big Papa incorrect
before all these tech's came out, i already made homemade scratch remover. i was a kid at the time too. i used to help my friend's dad sand paint off cars - buff with wax after cleaning the car. i learned that wax help cover scratches on cars so it looks new. my first attempt was to use coating on cd's it fail. then i use grinder and applied thin layer of sand paper grid on the side and grind it. first few attempt work because of uneven grinding. kept on doing it with very little pressure and developed craftsmanship and able to perfectly grind it even to remove deep scratches. all my friends didnt believe it. so i asked if they have any games that was scratches that they dont want and they gave it to me. the first game was final fantasy 8 and it i was able to remove it and played that series. i ended up having so much ps1 games that i was able to recovered. only if i had a mindset about business couldve made millions
BlueRice did it look better and not play ?
it looks worst and i thought i damage it even more. but it works.
Id sue for patent infringement then.
Cool story bro
Upload videos of this, we need this wisdom

Never has a cd resurfacing been so exciting and full of suspense.

hahahahaha
OH MY GOD THE CRINGE IS BAD
lol
bruh
This comment had me laughing my ass off
When the game popped up in the screen I just jumped of happiness even tho I don't like those type of games bht nice to know it works
+3Dpiezombie really? Your gonna attack this guy just because of his name? You are horrible person here.
Few will understand that old consoles work and look the best on crt's...
I think your right, my tv is sorta brand knew (not 4k tv, and really don't care about 4k) and when i play ps2 games, it doesn't feel like im playing a game in the 2000s, its like I'm playing a game FROM the 2000s. I miss the old days 😔💔
HDTVs and UHDTVs are the best for HD consoles since PS2 and original xbox. PS2 and original xbox have 1080i. Just get an hdmi adapter and a cheap working hdmi upconverter cable so it can look the best. It will look excellent on hd consoles and UHD consoles
@@fanofretrotechnology3802 yes hdmi converter makes it cleanest
No
unless you own a dreamcast😏
You guys don't understand he's a retro gamer and crt's work better for them.
IMr LAPS You can be any kind of gamer you want to be.
Dude crt's are the shit
dave raschke no they aren't
Im still using my crt shyt might be a year older than me im in my mid 20s lol
IMr LAPS piss off I'm 17 and I like retro games so fuck off
this guy should be on TV infomercials selling stuff he would be really good at it
Every single 10 seconds a disc gets scratch and abuse for just 10 cents a Day you can help these in need of a New disc
HAHAHHAHA SO FUNNY
😂😂😂
Hi How Are Ya you mean instead of a new disc not I quote . For just 10 cents a day you can help these (in need) of a new disc .that makes no sense also 54 people have a lower iq for liking your improper sentence

If you place a thick rubber pad under the machine it will drastically reduce the vibrations & it won't be as noisy..

That is literally so neat that you still own a CTR. I so wish I could get my hands on one so I can play my old Ps2 games...
Jaron Wheeler thift shop's are the place to look! 👍👌
Try thrift shops and yard sales. I recently was given a CRT from a thrift store. Its a mid 2000s era sharp with component and SVIDEO output.
True older consoles are better on those tv's, or there are video adapters that connect av cables to hdmi on newer flat screens. Basically these adapters connect most older consoles to flat screen tvs.
Or you could buy a component cable for your ps2 which makes it look good on hd tv and allow some games to play in 1080i
I j u st pick up a 27" for free and original remote I strong but going to have fet a dolly to get it out of the back of my SUV
I really love your reaction at the end!
I sir, applaud you for your true determination and dedication to video games.

7:29 IT WORKED!
I must be the only one trying to revive an old copy of Driv3r for the PS2. Trying to get the game to work since I never managed to finish it haha.
That game was awesome but I scratched it cuz I lost the case I could still play it but only Miami would only load halfway and nice wouldn’t load at all
Filip Milenkovic I got it in a steelbox.nice game.
Filip Milenkovic go get it from lukie games for cheap!
Dude, you are a UA-cam legend as far as I am concerned. I just love your reaction to that game finally working, classic!!
I thoroughly enjoyed your journey man and I was willing the whole time, for it to all come good in the end for you.... and it did...hooray!!
Everyone knows what it's like to have a dvd or a game disc that is too scratched up to work, it's proper annoying and choices for getting them fixed, without venturing to your local game store, or whatever, to have it resurfaced on one of those super dooper $1500 machines (£1200 in the UK), are quite limited.
Well done man, you have given us all hope that a quality home remedy exists.
Now all I've gotta do is go and try and find one of these things this side of the pond, hopefully without breaking the bank.
Wish me luck!....
P.S. just a great job on the video man!...peace to you!
This dood’s reactions alone are worth watching at 2 in the morning

THANK YOU SO MUCH Mcfloppy,MY MARIO PARTY 10 WORKED JUST THE WAY YOU DID. THIS CHANNEL NEEDS A 10 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS. AND SHOUT OUT TO THIS AMAZING UA-cam.
long time ago, i took my gamecube game that was really scratched into a shop that had a resurfacer. The guy said after he was done with it, it would work like a charm. I get home, put the game in, didn't even start. I took the disk out, looked at it, it was as if the whole disk was just one giant scratch DX
I would be pissed...

Love how your "fix it" vid turned into a "reaction vid" @ 7:29.....great reaction! You seemed genuinely shocked! I got the "ring" scratch on my COD Black Ops cd, which is how I found this vid.
SUPER SHERD..... I would assume you found this vid because you are wanting to resurface a disc, or discs. Did you ever get a disc resurfacing machine / run across a DIY method that worked?
Your tv makes my ears hurt
Finally someone says this. I had to mute the video because it was so bad. Any video were they use those old tvs I can't watch.

After I read this I finally noticed it

+Rainbowforce5 its just something called sensory adaptation
Glad you are still using a CRT today, it’s the best way of experiencing old gaming hardware platforms since LCDs have terrible upscaling even manufacturers don’t care about component anymore. My CRT 120hz monitor is part of my multi monitor setup and it serves as to run my Windows 98 Virtual Machine, and component video capture since OBS studio can project full screen to another monitor. Also my LG DVD slim drive can read damaged DVDs but will take a while correcting those errors
Vintage Electronics, Gadgets, and Animatronics Emulation on PC is better
Game boots up..... "IT WORKS PERFECTLY".
No, it boots up perfectly. CDs are read from the inside out so you can't say it works perfectly until you play the whole game because I think that some data later in the disc will be unreadable.
I was able to play this game fully with no problem.
+McFloppy how much does it cost
Well, actually, DVD's on the original Xbox are read from the outside in. So if it managed to boot the game, it has already read the part of the disc with the worst scratches.
@@exzaviorw EVERYTHING...
@evilution
What would be the quickest way of ascertaining that the disc is in perfect working order?

"0000" steel wool (the finest available) works too. Do not use anything
more coarse than "0000".
Don't press too hard, using small circular motions, just go slow until
you see the surface makes disappearing.
Also, automotive scratch remover works (the clear-coat on cars is very
thin so this is entirely safe for acrylic coating on discs, also on
clouded headlight plastic).
Can you elaborate? Do you use water? Or just the steel wool? More info would be appreciated. I've got one DVD-R disc I am trying to save.
bro i watched you so many times and this was my most favrioute video i watched from you and this did help me bro i recommend the jfj easy pro for people if they ask me

for everybody who talk about the TV, try to play xbox/ps2 or gamecube on an actual LED or LCD screen and enjoy your blurry shit gameplay
Zotac finally,someone who understands.
i have an old LCD TV. guess what. it's not blurry. lol
Mini-anthrax what's the screen size?
Randomthingz2show Randomthingz2show
Idk. But i know it supports 1080p.
Mini-anthrax perhaps the reason why it isn't blurry,is because it's a very old model.newer flat screen tv's will result in blurry picture unless it sets in at 4:3 ratio.
Good for you. That the heavy scratch worked in your player after the amount of cleaning shown. Very impressive. 👍👍😀
That's pretty cool, but it won't work if the aluminium layer is damaged.
I’d really like there to be a device that creates a new layer of plastic, due to concerns that resurfacing again and again would destroy discs, as well as repairing cracks in the center of discs!
i may be wrong but i read that a disc can be restored 4 times before damage to data area.
nice looking machine
When watching these CD cleaning videos. they tell you not to clean in a circular motion. But here he's using sandpaper and going in a circular motion.
I know what I'm buying myself for Christmas!
If you put them in a case they wont get scratched
It still might get scratched, better safe than sorry.
yup
Justin Roberto wyd if it gets laser burntm
Nothing can better than see kids happy even for small things
I had no idea this was even a thing that you could do. I guess I really don't understand how compact discs work. I would love to resurface my copies of Crimson Skies, Morrowind and Turok.
The part of the DvD that is read by the Xbox is sandwiched between two transparent plastic layers to protect the data, all this machine does is sand down that plastic layer until the scratches are gone so it can read the data layer. It kinda works like cleaning a window.
Don't feel bad about ruining Madden 07, not one of the better Maddens. LOL! Seriously though this is a nice helpful video. I appreciate it as someone on the fence about purchasing this.
I'm glad you found this video helpful!
I got one on Amazon
+Dan Allen Indeed. His video is some real shit.
Did it work for you? I've heard mixed reviews about this and it isn't cheap. I wanna play Fable on my Xbox but the game occasionally crashes, it has 3 semi deep scratches on it.
call
I don't know but I find this video wholesome. I can feel his frustration every try and especially his victorious omg when the disc played.
Ahhh the classic ear rape sound of old TV's!
Yeah seriously
puts disk in OH MY GOD... OH MY GOD.... OH MY GOD...
Awesome vid. I like the honest step by step, no fake BS.
this would be perfect for the games i've have that are too scratched up to play and it would be perfect, when I find cheap games that are too scratched up to play as well.
I knew I shouldn't have thrown away Mercenaries last week...😡😢
too bad, too bad...but it's not a very expensive game, isn't it?
+whitestriderable no but it was a special,
+whitestriderable bw honest I don't think it wouldhave helped, my ps2 aaid to insert a ps2 disc, not that it was damaged, it was worse than this disc
You needed to clean the little lens inside your ps2. That would have fixed it.
It’s Christmas and I got myself a JFJ Easy Pro. I’ve cleaned over 10 PS2 games and I’ve been really enjoying fixing all of them.
Ya know what the irony to this video is? When you handle your disc like that, no wonder your discs are going to get scratched, not work, and you'd need a machine like this. He just drops the disc on the tray (not lining it up), the presses down (putting pressure on the disc), and slides it into place. this was a serious issue with the designs of the: PS1, Saturn, GameCube, and Dreamcast that was quickly remedied by Sony and Nintendo with the slot loader. Watch people pull their discs off their gaming shelf and load them. Most times, they pull the disc out squeezing it with their fingers getting prints on them, and just like this guy, drop the disc on the try like you didn't pay $60 for a new game..... NO WONDER PEOPLE HAVE MACHINES LIKE THIS! THEY DONT TAKE CARE OF WHAT THEY HAVE! OH MY GOSH!
The ps2 slim laser ribbon pops out and makes a ring scratch on disc, and no one's fault but bad design.
That's gayest comment I've ever read on youtube
he so happy he fixed it but he never goin2 play it tho
he only got the game to do a test on
100% true right there!
+Donald Trump who would buy it? he said he got the game 4free
That's pretty cool. Wished I had this for the games I came across growing up.
I would like to try this on a few Sega Saturn games I own. Bought them on ebay, listed in good condition.... good condition my ass.
Good condition means there's some scratch marks but it's in working condition.
Have you had issues with the center part of the disc being scratched due to tightening the cap too tight,
causing scuff marks, now disk can't be recognized.
would appreciate help
I don't have a problem with it.I also just make sure it is just snug.
it mainly happens when i am using the sanding disk, must be doing it up too tight
i have since cut out a round microfibre cloth to fit under the cap that screws in and no longer have that issue, but have several disks unreadable due to scuffs on the center bit
That is actually a pretty good idea.

I wouldn't feel horrible. There are millions of copies of Madden '07 out there. And let's be honest, who the hell still plays Madden '07?
Miklo Martinez i think quite a few people play it for nostalgia
JakePRO More likely Madden 2003/2004/2005 and 2006 to ne the greatest on the PS2/Xbox times.
Some people are still playing old games.
For example i like playing Fifa 2005 on PC and PS2.
You can probably find it for 0.01$
I still play it actually, the soundtrack was lit

But thats a sticker-

Looks like I need this device so I can fix every disc I have , (over 4,000 games on disc since TG16 CD Rom was invented moving forward), and then I will invest in a professional Y Fold re-wrapping machine so I can make them like NOS again. Thank you for this video, as lame as it was to hear "Oh My God" every time you tried it out, that last "Oh My God" near the final minute was worth hearing, and it made my mind up to buy this thing!

When your watching a movie and someone gets jumped scared.
CLEAN THE DISC AND THE WHEELS BETWEEN USES
oh wow, i need this for some of my simpson dvds
Other thing too is if scratches are in middle of disk it isn’t going to play due to sensitive data being stored there.
I wouldn't get too excited just yet. ALL optical discs read from the center outward, meaning that you removed all of the scratches from the beginning you quite possibly Not all from the entire disc. A complete gameplay will tell. Another go with the machine may be needed.
I'm thinking at some point in the game (Or if you are doing a movie dvd /audio cd /data disc) ANY scratches on the disc will cause errors.
Correct. My point exactly.
This actually isn't the case. The laser starts at the inner section of the disc to collect a small amount of information about the contents of the disc and their location on the disc. It's generally known as the lead-in, and each track on a disc can have it's own lead-in and lead-out for defining multiple sections of a disc. After it reads that, it quickly shifts to the outermost ring of the disc where velocity is highest. The further the data is from the center of the disc, the faster it can be read due to the disc's rotational plane paired with a fixed maximum rotational speed. As the laser is forced to move closer to the center of the disc, the data is read more slowly, which is why developers of games work hard to move the most important data to the outer rings of the discs when making the final masters for their games as part of the optimization process.
“EA Sports” OHHHHHHH MAAAAAAA GAWWWWWWDDD!!!!!!! OHHHHGG MYYYYY GOOODDD!!! OHHHHH MYYY GOOODDDD!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
I've always taken care of my discs so i don't have any noticeable scratches at all. But i guess leaving them outside the cover is the worst thing to do. That i have never done.
5 years later: yeah so pretty much
Oh my god 5 years already??? Felt like yesterday that I made this... Time really does fly.
Will it work on ps1 games?

I would suggest saving your money and do what I've been doing for the past 8 years... use *Meguiar's PlastX* for the minor scratches and polishings and use *Brasso* metal polish on the deeper scratches, following up with PlastX. I have tested pretty much everything recommended to get these scratches out sans buffing and this works like a charm unless you have some serious issues with keeping your discs clean!
do u have a video where u do it? cause i have some games i want to fix but not wasting alot of money
lets see a video of you proving your statement!
نلنل لا
Hey i have some brasso and plastx i should give that a try.
he used lubercation
man, i sure do need a machine like this for some of my Wii and PS2 games...
Will this work with PS3 games ?
jimmy perkins it will work with any disk
If it’s a disc it will work
Oh, sure. Any disc.
jimmy perkins I have the machine. All you can do with blu ray discs is buff and polish. NO sanding. Sanding removes the coating on the blu ray discs and ruins them. I've ruined several just experimenting. The jfj works well on cds and dvd though.
Ooh my god ooh my god yes
