Or, use a banana peel to fill in the scratches. Weird, but works:D

Toothpaste too, althought I've found banana works better:p

Once its done you don't notice it visually.(It smells either minty or bananay depending on what you used...:p)

815785 2009-10-01 11:31:00 But are you going to trust that banana residue to stay on there at speeds over 10,000 RPM? (at full 52x speed) Agent_24 (57)
815786 2009-10-01 21:17:00 Well the CD that I was trying to make has had it completely. I can't even start Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 now. convair (13650)

Blam Never heard of that one - but if it works- why Not.:)

You would only have to actually have it in your drive once - and thats to make a copy / ISO image of it, then burn/ use another CD/DVD.

815789 2009-10-02 07:03:00 I have ordered a new set of flightsim disks so I will be able to continue using FS2004.

I have never heard of using banana on a CDROM. Wouldn't that stuff up the CD/DVD drive?

If you rub it on right, you shouldn't even notice it.

I'm not an expert, but its always been fine for me and has never broken any drives.
