    it's not that you're getting toothpaste inside the scratches, it's the fact that toothpaste is basically polishing paste and you need to add a little then buff it out with a cloth just like any other polishing job. It's smoothing out the surface, taking away a thin layer of plastic and making the grooves less pronounced. So it's not the toothpaste that's doing the "magic" It's the polishing. No need to use that much toothpaste, just put a pea-sized drop on the cloth and spread it and with a dry, clean cloth buff it out as best as you can. Hope this clears things up!

    • @DavidB-rx3km

  • @nitroxylictv
    @nitroxylictv День тому

    Nope. Toothpaste contains micro abrasives that will scratch not only plastic but also glass. Putting toothpaste on a disc will scratch it up further and probably destroy the top layer of it leaving the data and metal sub layer exposed to the air. On top of that, it looks like you used an acrylic microfibre cloth, which also scratches soft plastics as acrylic is a plastic itself. You basically just ruined that disc. Never, ever do this especially to vintage video games because they use worse plastics. If you want to fix scratches on a disc, some libraries and video game stores have disc resurfacing machines that will take a very tiny layer off the plastic and give it a mirror polish like factory new, or if you really care about collecting games, just buy one of those machines yourself.

    • @marioboi323
      @marioboi323 День тому

      I thought a microfibre cloth is the only thing you should use for a disc. Like the ones you get with glasses or screen protectors. Cuz they’re soft and don’t scratch it.

    • @nitroxylictv
      @nitroxylictv День тому

      You cant really polish plastic without a delicate machine taking a tiny layer off the surface, plastic is too brittle and soft for polishing. Polishing a game disc is stupid because the plastic surface is so thin you risk cutting through it and exposing the sub layers to air.

I also think there's problems with postal workers handling packages, sellers packaging stuff, and probably some accidents from people uploading things for pawn shop accounts, resellers, etc who really don't know videogames or don't care In the end of the day I am still happy and grateful that I have all the Xbox games, I use it a lot and take care of it.

    • @XboxBoomer117
      @XboxBoomer117 6 днів тому

      Yeah, you can but for me when collecting games I put the financial to the forefront. I did the math a long time ago about roughly how much it would cost for a complete set of 360 and it is expensive, so I know for a lot of these I have to "stay on budget" and get what I expected. I try not to spend extra because I put my family's financial goals way ahead of games. There are some Etsy sellers that can mail you almost identical cover art for just under about $10 USD but I really try to get the original stuff that I grew up with, although I have done this a couple times for more expensive games

      I do clean all of my games in depth when I get them, but some games like dark messiah are just too rough. I'm not sure what people are doing with these games before I get them but they are too far gone sometimes. As for the green cases, Its just a money issue. Xbox 360 collecting is a small hobby of mine and I always put my family's financial goals ahead of game collecting. In a nutshell, I'm too cheap to buy the green cases so I use DVD cases because that's what we have plenty of at home. If I ever see $1 Xbox games I will buy them just for the cases, but they are getting harder to find

    They used to be very expensive. 50$ used and even more new. There is no room on the original Xbox 360 to even use it. Only 1 usb port in the back and that’s used for Kinect.
