To fix a scratched CD, first clean the disk by running some warm water over the disk to remove dust, and if there is grease on the disk rub it with a finger. You can use a gentle detergent, a liquid soap or alcohol. When rubbing the disk, you should start at the rear centre of the disk then rub outwards towards the edge so as to prevent further scratching. After cleaning put the disk in an area with dry air and do not sundry the disk or use a towel or cloth to dry.
