    GameDoctor.

    Period.

    Bar none.

    It even removes most scratches, smudges, and any other defect on your CD/DVD.

    I have a great method for cleaning DVDs and CDs. It is proven to be cost effective and acheives pretty good results, for the price.

    Step 1- Place cd, face up, on shirt.

    Step 2- Rub on shirt

    Step 3- Blow on cd to remove any lint that may have rubbed off.

    Viola!

    water is safe
    i usually use a spray bottle to mist the disc
    then get a piece of felt and buff dry the disc.

    Use a can of compressed air. BIt'll blow off the dust and lint.

    If you're going to do it by hand, use a clean piece of felt and maybe camera lense cleaner. Make sure you clean the disc from the hub with outward strokes, as this will decrease the footprint to the laser of any scratches you might cause.

    Oven Cleaner.

    Then dip it in a vat of fingernail polish remover.

    Then light it on fire.

    That ought to take care of your problem.

    Have you ever placed one in the microwave? Set it for 4-7 seconds and enjoy the lightshow. A good way to make drink coasters!
