If it is just a suface scratch wipe it with a soft...like a lens cleaning cloth...and wipe from the center towards the outside edge.....if it's a deep scratch you may not be able to save it......

If the toothpaste method fails try "CD Fix-It", it comes in a little bottle with a fancy soft cloth. You rub some of the solvent into the disc then buff it off with the cloth. It should be available at stores that sell CDs.

Don't forget, whatever method you use, to clean and buff from the center of the disc outwards, not in a circular motion! I can't believe the number of people who jsut rub the disc on their shirt in a circle...that only makes it worse!

Good luck!

im gonna tell you the best way to do it and trust me, its really works. Ive had cds that wouldnt even play and after doing this, they have been playing for about 6 years now.
wax paper and a hairdryer. place the cd on a towel and place the wax paper over it and turn the blowdryer on low/medium and put it close to the cd until you start to see the wax transfer to the cd. when that happens, pull the wax paper off, take a terry cloth and wipe all the excess wax off and all that should be remaining in the wax filling the scratches which makes your cd work again. you may have to do it a couple times in a row to get all the scratches filled

lol not the same question what the girl said about toothpaste just like you asking? well i dont think you shouldn't use the tooth paste on any c'ds if it has scratched on it . you should use a acholoc or a cd cleaner and use a dry wip tissue and dont rub it hard just clean soft on it then will clear up the scratch . if that doesnt work then you should get aother new cd that has the same brand cd instead.

TRUST ME THIS WORKS EVEN BETTER:

1.) Boil some water on the stove; grab the cd with tongs so you can dip it in the boiling water for ONE MINUTE ONLY (set the timer). Dry it off and it should be good as new.

2.) Grab three bucks and take it to Games4Less or other local used game shop with a rebuffer machine. They have a machine there that works wonders on CD?DVD?PS1?PS2. I have taken one game there three times, and all three times it has come back sparkling and running like new :)

Get a CD buffing kit (or a dvd buffing kit for dvds) The manual crank ones are better than the electric ones. The scratch will still be visible to you but will not effect the play quality fo the cd.

i never heard of this method before, but i dont think its a good idea because toothpaste contains some wierd solutions in its ingredient. For example, sulfate and such. I recommend you just taking it to some video game store (game crazy, GameStop, etc.) and they could just buff it for.

Note:they'll probably charge you a fee. Rather be safe then sorry.

The solutions in all of the commercial cd fixits are made with wax. Any form of clean, unpreserved wax will work, as long as you buff the excess off. Although, crayon wax is not suggested ;P
