Remove CD Scratches within 10 Seconds..

Step 3 Wash and Cook your CD.

After polishing, bits of plastics and MSG crystals needs to be cleaned, so you'll have to wash your CD with soap and water.

Then for real! cook your CD in a pan with 1 cup water for 1 minutes for best possible readability.
Take it out using a fork. Dry it out with a towel, starting from the center outwards.

Then It's done!

You can now copy away your CD's to your Computer!

When you "cook" the CD, what temperature do you do it?
Just a bubble or roiling boil or just a simmer?

I guess the cooking is to remove totally any impurity from the surface and to make the plastic to soften a bit and probably "fill" or enhance those micro voids and else.

As a bonus, once your CD is back to life again, you can add tomato paste and chicken to the pot and enjoy the very first digital chicken cacciatore! =-)

Thanks for this instructable, supervillain.

haven't done this yet, but to avoid scratches use a spatula or something non scratching to pick up your cd lol.
