KeesGuy Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 If the aluminum layer is scratched or gouged you probably are out of luck. If it is the plastic only, I've had pretty good luck with NuFinish car wax. I assume others would work as well. I don't know if there is any long term effect of using car wax on the disc but my opinion is that, well, it didn't work anyway so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easylistener Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Toothpaste works realy good also. If it is scratced to deep nothing can fix it. There are some coputer software that will read up to the point and then aftor but that little part will be lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterT Posted November 27, 2003 Author Share Posted November 27, 2003 Yeah KeesGuy, it's scratched through the aluminum layer. I figured it was junk but i thought I'd ask. What a bummer! It was a Flim & the BB's disc and they're so hard to find. Does anybody know where to find their music anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WMcD Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 Try some light colored nail polish (like aluminum color) on the label side of the CD. You got nothing to lose. Gil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
