We manually cancelled the copy in RUC. Then we removed the disc, and used toothpaste to buff the surface. Use a soft tissue to buff the surface of the disc with the toothpaste. DO NOT move in a circle with the circumstance of the disc. Move mostly back and forth from the inside out. We used a combination of inside out with small circles and carefully polished every area of the read surface of the disc. Then the disc was rinsed with dish soap and cool to warm water. Once rinsed let the disc air dry or dry carefully with a very soft cloth. Make sure absolutely no dampness or moisture whatsoever is left on the disc before inserting into the PC CDROM drive.We manually cancelled the copy in RUC.

It won't, don't worry. The scratching was altered in such a way that they were less severe in improperly refracting the laser light. When RUC was used this time the entire movie copied to the PC successfully with only 1 error. The movie was saved and could be played with no noticeable defect. The disc that was buffed with toothpaste did not visually appear scratch free! It won't, don't worry. The scratching was altered in such a way that they were less severe in improperly refracting the laser light. The key is to polish out the deep scratches creating very fine scratches, essentially polishing the CD. When RUC was used this time the entire movie copied to the PC successfully with only 1 error. The movie was saved and could be played with no noticeable defect. STRAIGHT LINES OUTWARD! How you polish the disc is very important - always polish in a straight line from the radius of the center to the outside, rather than polish around the radius in circles. This is because the tracks on the disc are circles around the radius. Creating scratches in line with the tracks not only blocks reading from each data "dent" but the redundant subsequent "dents." Scratching in any direction other than along the tracks is far less destructive. Again, use the cloth to gently buff the disc. Rub from the inner part of the disc to the edges in a straight line outward. Don’t move the cloth in circles or follow the lines imprinted in the disc. This could possibly scratch it worse.
