Anyone use CD tweaks

I was wondering about the effectiveness of products hyped to improved sound quality - i.e. products like Maple Shade's "Mikro Smooth" for polishing CDs and their "Optrix" surfactant product. You want to believe these claims, but sometimes they sound too good to be true. Anyone with any experience with these or similar CD enhancers??

Thanks in advance...

Im surprised no ones mentioned Herbies CD mat.
No doubt this mat makes CD's sound less digital.
The biggest improvement I've found is how the mat brings out female vocals to a 'in your room' realism.

2chnlben,the Herbie CD mat is so light it wont have a negative effect on the RPM's,and it works the way you describe.
Tvad, my mat didnt work on my friends 3910 either.
The Herbie CD mat was the winner of a 'best cd tweak' in a thread from long ago.
Most,if not all that owned one said it works better than any cd tweak and does what it is described to do to improve the sound of cd's and sacd's
When I bought mine I think its was 20 bucks shipped.It may be up to $24 now.
Not sure if Herbie offers a return policy,but Im very sure anyone that tries it wont be returning it.
Herbie offers a lifetime warranty I do know. Even if your dog dines on it for lunch.
As I said before,Im surprised no one has mentioned this mat except me.
