| Tooth paste can be very abrasive. I use plexiglas polish from Blue Coral. Always polish from the center to the outside, never in a circle. Wenol Blue works. Some of the less abrasive auto polishes work too. I have taken some hideous looking rental discs and polished them into working order, just to save a trip back to the store. |

www.walmart.com/catalog/product.gsp?product_id=4062502 Best $25 it will pay for itself after a couple of disks and it works amazing. The surface looks fucked after but it works on even bad stratches |
+1 Go with the Skip Doctor. I've used it on some badly scratched dvds and it works great. It saved me a bunch of money. I wouldn't say the dvd looks fucked afterwards, I think Magurgle is referring to the lines that are left by the polisher... but that's normal. |
Yeah, the lines it leaves would make you think it fucked your disk more than fixed it, but once you try it it is good to go, they have a motorized version but that is just overkill. |
How long does it take to fix a disc? |
|
yes, you are right, but for the occasional disc repair the manual is just fine.
