Beside toothpaste, a tooth-powder is very usefull - its abrasivity is very good, but it`s hard to buy this thing today.
The same with chalk (if disk is scrached very badly), but you sould find very fine-grained one, w/o any dirt and use it with caution - then use finer abrasive, such as toothpaste.
