A question, though...will this method fix more than scratches?  (ie, smearing, etc.)

AFAIK, it should fix any physical defects on the surface.

@ Zone, i hope you know, the higher the grit sand paper, the finer it is. Just for I took a CD to ~200 Grit sand paper. It was completely destroyed in a few minutes.


@ Toad, would higher grit paper like 1200 or even 2000 grit work?

Hmmmm ... sanding a disk that is already scratched ... it should only be necessary for deeply scratched disks or ones with surface imperfections ... I recommend you try it with an AOL disk first (you should have plenty of those around ... if not check you mail)

Since i couldn't find any 600grit sand paper, I got my old win98 disk and took a high powered belt sander to it:)

I recomend you try with high powered belt sanders on old wind98 CDs first

Yes. Trying it on a CD you don't care about first is a very good idea.
