If you have scratched CD's then go to your local used video game store and have them resurface the discs. Probably will cost like $3 per disc.
To clean a Genesis watch this video.

Make sure the said store use a quality machine. A lot of them use crap machines that basically ruin the disc. The quality of the result between a professional station and a crap one is night and day. But these good machines can cost 3000$ and up so not all stores will have those.Quote:

Solid advice right here. I can't stress the importance of a good resurfacer, and someone who knows how to operate it.Quote:
