Careful circular polishing strokes using the polish and toilet paper seems to work for me getting most scratches out. Be sure to rinse thoroughly and let dry before using the disc after cleaning. For severe scratches you might be able to use 2000 grit wet/ dry sandpaper on a flat surface (moving the disc back and forth) or wrapped on a sanding block (with the disc laying stationary on a flat surface) with generous amounts of water to "cut" the scratches out with a followup polishing using the PlastX. You can use this same method to cleanup the polycarbonate headlight lenses on cars when they yellow. It makes them look new again.
