Tips for getting rid of scratch rings on discs?

[SlayerZ99]

I got this free copy of Black Ops from a friend and it has 2 perfect rings in it. Do you guys know of any DIY tips to remove scratches?
I heard using a rotary tool with a buffer attachment works but that seems like it would make it a lot worse.

I think I'm just going to call my local gamestop or blockbuster and see if they have a resurfacing disc machine

the game's broken
scratches on a game are one thing
when you do something stupid with the Xbox and this happens, there's nothing to be done besides buying another copy

I did this to Halo:Reach a year ago.
It still works to today.

Did what?


My Xbox reads it as a DVD

I called gamestop and the first guy immediately hung up on me. The other guy was a lot more patient.
These 2 gamestops are literally right next to each other.

I assume he did something stupid with his X-box and scratched the disc.

Nah he got both copies from his cousin who got them from some store going out of business

His copies works alright, but it freezes some

Mine doesn't read as a game at all

That's a problem with the xbox when it decides "forget your stuff i'm an xbox" and breaks your game.

it doesn't do it for no reason
it's a user error that causes it
like moving the Xbox with a disc in it
as it clearly says not to do

oh.

well it happened to my brother and that's how he described it.

your brother probably just didn't want to admit that he forgeted up

windex

windex is a glass cleaner; it will not get rid of scratches on a window, mirror, or disc
and that's the end of it

i heard smearing toothpaste on it with a soft piece of cloth helps but don't rub it in a circle around the disk, move the toothpaste to the edges, wash it with water, and then let it dry.
