for the VIVID
VIVID optical polish works as advertised and is very much worth the effort and cost. It takes 2 or 3 minutes per disc to apply. The improvement is not subtle on most discs and absolutely astonishing on others. It improves resolution, dynamics (micro-dynamics in particular are spectacular), enhances bass performance, and image separation.
Product Weakness: Requires some effort. Product Strengths: Excellent performance.
