Liquid brass polish. Been around forever. There is a companion product for
silver called, oddly enough, Silvo which is a bit finer in composition I
believe.
Brasso works very well on scratched cds, I've got a couple that were
unplayable/readable
and now look and play like new. Requires patience. I don't recommend power
tools in this
application though I have resorted to putting the cd in a holder on a
variable speed drill for really
heavy scratching that was going to take forever by hand. That worked, with
a chux and plenty of
brasso.
