How to Clean a DVD disk......

Ever had a DVD disk that was either scratched or so dirty that your DVD player could not read it??  Toothpaste (no, I can't tell you any specific brand!) - take the DVD and put on a glob of toothpaste (about as much as you would put on your toothbrush).  Take a clean cloth and begin to rub the toothpaste in all around basically until it "dries" and then rinse off all the toothpaste.  Using another clean cloth, wipe clean.  It works on 90% of the "bad" DVD's - a few it will not work on.....but certainly worth a try!!
