How to Repair CD Scratches
- For light scratches: Apply a bit of toothpaste to a q-tip (cotton swab) and gently polish the scratches with toothpaste until you have removed them. Now wash the CD in some water to remove the toothpaste. Dry completely then test it. If it doesn’t work, you can try the toothpaste method again or move on to the next method below.
- For moderate to heavy damage: If toothpaste doesn’t work, try using the metal polish “Brasso”. Working in a well ventilated area, pour a bit of Brasso on a paper towel and rub the CD with the Brasso in a circular motion, applying pressure if needed to work out the scratches (careful not to break the disc). After the scratch has been removed, apply a light pressure polish. During the process take a few breaks to allow the Brasso to haze and then remove it with toilet paper, this helps the polishing process. Rinse the CD and allow to dry before testing to see if it works.
