I have never had a CD scratched that couldn't be made playable again. Even when I was carrying one to the car in a jewel box that fell out of the box unbeknownst to me and I discovered it after driving over it with my car a few times with tires filled with the gunk of a Chicago Winter. Soap, water, dry, and yep, perfect sound forever.
I agree with the posters who point out that in the scheme of things, this is not a big deal. At least some one is fortunate enough to share your love of Music and likes your taste enough to borrow.
I did once loan a SACD to a friend who thought he was doing me a favor by returning it having cleaned it with some type of home brew he concocted...it left a maple syrup like residue on the disc. Again, soap and water got the job done, and hey, at least my friend now likes Mahers Fifth Symphony
