Usually the home versions were scams, but there were better quality ones out there that would remove just a little bit of the top layer, making a smooth finish again. Although deep scratches obviously couldn’t be repaired in this case.
We used toothpaste and water to "cure" CD and DVD scratches lol. I swear, it (seemed like it) worked! 😄
Sometimes it did! I tried it on a disc that was so messed up, I figured out couldn't make it work any less, and wouldn't you know, it worked for the first time in a long time. Other times, not so lucky.
Most toothpaste is slightly abrasive so depending on the scratches it can definitely work as a polish. I'd always steal my dad's special glass polish and it was basically like toothpaste
I learned how to polish glass fiber... It's not any different from polishing anything else, except the "sandpaper" is smoother than normal paper
Toothpaste is an abrasive... Partner it up with finer and finer abrasives and you could get a cd clearer than new
