A Neat Trick on How to Resurface a CD

This is a trick that a lot of people already know, but just in case they didn't I posted this.

CHEERS!

Gather the Materials

The Needed Materials for This project are:

1.) A scratched CD

2.) White toothpaste (not the gel kind)

3.) Warm water

Get Er' Dun!

First get you CD and smear the toothpaste on the scratched surface (NOT TOO MUCH, ONLY ENOUGH). Then rub it around a little with your finger in an up and down motion, NOT A CIRCULAR MOTION, IT WILL RUIN THE CODING. Lastly, rinse it off with warm water in an up and down motion.
And Voila! A usable CD!

This is a different CD, not the blue one. And I am in the process. But anyways, note how the CD isn't too scratched.
