Removing CD-R labels

Question: I have removed a small label from the CD-R, accidentally removing some of the golden surface at the same time (now stuck to the label). Now there is a small hole in the middle of the CD which can be seen through. Can I paint over the hole? I have already tried putting the label back, but the CD still cannot be read.

Answer: No, I'm afraid that the disc is damaged beyond repair. Unfortunately, removing the label often damages the reflective surface, destroying the CD.
