The clever part about Novus is the three grades that you apply (for CD sctatches you probably only neeed to use the two lightest). Also the set of three smallest bottles is pretty cheap and will last for a long time.
Brasso is roughly the equivalent of Novus #2 in abrasion. However I seem to recall that Brasso contains something to inhibit tarnishing of the brass after cleaning. It certainly has a strong chemical smell (Novus is pretty neutral). I would be worried about cleaners that leave such residues as although the disc may seem fine immedialtely after cleaning there is a possibility that when you return to it weeks or months later it will be unplayable (remember, what was it, Armourguard ?). I have had similar experience with certain optical enhancers/cleaners.
NB: Given my strong recommendation,the usual disclaimers apply.
