Default How to repair scratched DVDs

Help, I tried car polish, like Griot's said, and it didn't do squat. This technique usually works with CD's but not with DVDs.

The scratch does not appear that deep.

they work very well, but it's not a good idea to make a habit out of scratching up your DVD's

i don't know how people scartch dvds. if you keep them in your cases, you should be fine. Unless you have kids, it shouldn't be a problem.
