My friend used to stick them in the toliet and flush them. Never tried it but it works for him. :?
I don't recommend this though. Just get it buffed at a game rental store or something.

You can try cleaning it with alcohol, and if that doesn't work take it to a store like gamestop or gamecrazy and get it buffed for a small fee. Or you can buy your own cleaning kit.

Oh god, I have known a few people that did that but I am still a bit of a germ phob. Not matter how clean the toliet is there is still poo! Anyways there are a few good places to get the disc repaired. If you can't find it locally, I remember there are a few websites that offer the service too.
