What after applying toothpaste to a scratched CD?

This is my first time using toothpaste on scratched CDs. What I do is put a small amount of toothpaste on my CD and wipe it with a cloth (lint free?) in straight lines starting from the center to the edge of the CD. When I finished, I could already see most scratches are gone, but the toothpaste is still visible. I tried to run it on my PC (still with toothpaste on it) but it didn%26#039;t read, obviously of the toothpaste.





What should I do to remove it?

What after applying toothpaste to a scratched CD?
hi there





toothpaste is a good option, for people who wish to remove small scratches.





follow these steps:





1/ apply toothpaste, just a small amout


2/ smuge toothpaste around with CLEAN thumbs


3/ wipe off with lint or any other cloth that does not scratch


4/ rinse with warm water, using thumbs to remove excess toothpaste - let the water remove it, not your thumbs though


5/ wipe with a dry cloth, NON stratching, of course


6/ insert it into your PC





this method will remove only small scratches, and washes the toothpase off after. You must make sure that you do not follow the disc round, but inside to out is good enough.





for deepsctraches, try professional tools.
