Baking soda toothpaste
Baking soda toothpaste, huh? Actually, any mild abrasive like furniture polish, Pledge, or plastic polish works fine for removing CD scratches. Just take any lint-free cloth, add some of the abrasive to the afflicted area, and then wipe. Make sure to wipe from the center of the disc to the rim in a straight line. Never wipe in a circular pattern.
Car wax
Another home remedy I tried was car wax. Unlike polishes, waxes fill in the cracks or scratches. Just pour or rub the wax on a scratched area and wipe it off with a lint-free cloth from the center to the rim.
I didn't experience the greatest results, but it could have been the car wax I was using, liquid Turtle Wax. Some people testify that this works, but I believe you may have better luck with a Carnauba-style car wax. If you don't have access to car wax, you can try furniture wax like Pledge instead.

Take the CD to a game store, and they have a CD buffer. You pay a small price for a card that allows you to get 5 CDs fixed.

I saw a CD repair kit at Target. I'd make the investment instead of trying some home remedies. I've used rubbing alcohol and a microfiber cloth and that cleaned my DVDs up pretty good.

Those skip doctor things actually work. They buff the scratches off.
