I have used it with excellent results. Once the disc is dry from printing, you apply the product with a few light coats and that’s it. The application process is similar to spray painting and like any other chemical, there are handling precautions but it works like a charm. I actually ran my test disc under the faucet and then tried to smear it with my finger and the image stayed completely in tact.

However, I've had some people that had issues with them not playing properly (skipping) on their DVD players. I've recently switched to Taiyo Yuden and Verbatim DVD-/+R disks and have also slowed down the speed from 16X to 8X. People that had problems playing my disks previously are not having these problems now.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/printable-dvd-problem#post-33868 Mon, 26 Nov 2007 18:43:14 +0000 RonnieR 33868@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Memorex DVDs or CDRs are not recognized by my drives either. My duplicator does recognize them but I've had several people say that the finished videos wont work in their players.  After checking on several other sites it looks like a recurring problem,  but Memorex told me it's not their problem.  I have also made the transition to TY discs.  Cost a LITTLE more but the peace of mind is worth it.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/printable-dvd-problem#post-33865 Mon, 26 Nov 2007 17:39:54 +0000 Brian Fisher 33865@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hi Binzz,</p> <p>I strongly suspect the blank media you bought is not recognizable by the particular DVD Drive you have.  Many low cost blank media is manufactured out of spec.   When this happens, sometimes your drive will try to focus the laser on the disc and it will not recognize it.  I would suggest that you buy another brand,.... Taiyo Yuden is one of the best and most consistent, others are Sony and sometimes Verbatim.</p> <p>IF that doesn't work, I would supect your burner has a problem, but most times its the blank media, not the drive.</p> <p> Brian Fisher<br /> DVD Copycat<br /> <a href="http://www.dvdcopycat.com/">San Francisco DVD Duplication</a></p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/printable-dvd-problem#post-33729 Fri, 16 Nov 2007 14:15:51 +0000 cfulton 33729@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>If those were DVD-R that you bought, that is something you'll see on all blank discs. I don't know what its specific function is, but it is on every single blank DVD-R I've ever seen.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/printable-dvd-problem#post-33727 Fri, 16 Nov 2007 10:40:26 +0000 KBVP 33727@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>What's with this <strong>Â</strong> simbol when an edit is performed?  Another bug on this backward forum format.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/printable-dvd-problem#post-33726 Fri, 16 Nov 2007 10:35:57 +0000 KBVP 33726@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I have no problem with the Memorex in LG or Sony drives.  My 7 bay duplicator likes them, also.  However.. TDK has been banned from my office.  I bought several 100 count spindles and all were bad.  On close inspection, it looked like each had been written on for about 1/8th inch in from the start, inside near the center.  I bought them at Costco and returned all of them.  Look at the disc very closely and see if that'd the case.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/printable-dvd-problem#post-33724 Fri, 16 Nov 2007 08:12:54 +0000 Binnz7dw 33724@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I have some memorex(i think) printable dvds that I bought a couple of months ago, when i put them in either of my dvd drives they do not recognize the disc(s) (have tried more than one). One of my dvd drives is only 2 weeks old, it is an LG that is supposed to read and burn everything except HD/BR. Has anyone else had this problem? Any know fixes? Thank you for your time!!</p>
