You might not have to buy a commercial cleaner if your CD disc is only slightly scratched. Sometimes you can get pretty good results with any mildly abrasive agent such as furniture polish or baking soda toothpaste. Just use any lint-free cloth, add some of the abrasive to the damaged area, and then wipe. Be sure to work radially, from the center of the disc to the rim in a straight line. Never wipe in a circular pattern! That's a definite no-no!!
This technique does nothing for the deeper blemishes, though. For that, some folks have recommended applying a carnauba-based car wax. I tried Turtle Wax, and several other similar products, and elbow grease but got nothing except a really shiny CD that still wouldn't play and which is now a coffee-table coaster for my cup.
