Almost every CD I own has multiple scratches on it, and some won’t play without skipping. I’m sure some of you have thrown away CDs because of this problem. I’m going to explain to you the process of removing cd scratches with toothpaste. You may have heard of this technique before, and yes, it works.
Toothpaste is a great polishing compound that keeps our teeth nice and shiny. This is the same concept that will work on your CDs. The most important part of the CD is the actual label on top. The information is burned to the foil on the bottom side of the label. If you scratched the top label, your disk is permanently destroyed.
There are two ways to repair a scratched CD. You can fill in the scratches or resurface the disk. Toothpaste is a resurfacing technique without the fancy equipment.
Clean the disk with soap and water before starting to remove and dirt that may further scratch the CD. Next simply rub some toothpaste onto the scratched CD in a circular motion with a soft towel and it will restore it. It has to be regular toothpaste, not gel. It works wonders, and you will save money on your restored CDs.
Keeping things realistic, your heavily scratched CDs may have no hope. It all depends on the depth of the scratch. Some scratches won’t be repairable, but most will.
Do not get the disk wet before playing it. If it gets even a little wet before the disc was put in the drive, toothpaste could all over the drive internals.
Another good way to remove scratches from CDs is to use an automotive rubbing compound. This is used in the same technique as toothpaste. This is designed to remove light scratches in your automotive paint, but it works great on CDs as well.
Both of these methods can be used to fix scratched ps2 games, cell phone face, ipod and other video game cd and dvds.
