Scratch repairs

Throw a touch of baking soda in with the toothpaste for deeper scratches--gives you a little more grit. Wash it in warm soapy water (mild detergent) and polish with the toothpaste again if it is a bit coarse. Wash again to get the toothpaste off. Finally buff the piss out of it with a radial CD Cleaner to give it a little extra polishing---make sure to use a decent amount of cleaning solution so the pad doesn't get dry and create a swirled abrasive pattern on the disc.

It is tedious, but I've managed to salvage a few rental games I snagged at a deep discount because they were scratched and skipped. You may want to invest in a GameDoctor for a bout $30 (US) It more or less automates the process, and only takes about 5-10 minutes to repair the whole disc at once.

Good Luck!

Raist.
