How to Repair a Scratched CD

Introdução

This technique works by using a rubbing compound that contains a grit to wear down deeper scratches on the CD. It also utilizes car wax to fill any remaining scratches, protect the CD, and keep the CD clean. Please note that this method will only work for CDs and DVDs, but will not work for Blu-Ray discs, as they are made of a harder material. Therefore, trying to wear down scratches with a rubbing compound would prove unsuccessful on a Blu-Ray disc.
