Disc Polishing
I have a couple of discs that are scratched in a fashion that prevents some of the videos on them from playing properly, and since I have seen at least one place where you can send a disc to for repolishing, I'm wondering if there is a way for me to do this myself?
Most of the devices that I have tried or read about are really nothing more than cleaning machines. What they call "cleaning fluid" is nothing more than water, with a trace of alcohol to prevent algae from forming.
I do have a Disc Doctor, which kind of abrades the disc surface to reduce scratches, but it leaves it's own scratches in a radial pattern, and too often, the disc is no better off after using it than before.
I have also read that using tooth paste works, but while I admit I only tried it once, I didn't have any success with it either.
Is there something affordable that will truely polish a disc to the original condition>
