How to Repair Car Scratches

11/9/2019

Car scratches can catch you by surprise. You might have your car parked out overnight, and in the morning as you go to work, you notice a streak on the body of your vehicle. Most of the time, damages like these can run so deep that it extends into the primer. Take note of these temporary solutions until you’ve saved up the money for repair.
Use Repair Kits of High Quality
One advantage of living in the age of today, especially in the automotive field, is that there are plenty of products that can get all the things you want to be done in an instant. There are a couple of car scratch removers available in different stores that will help clean your car up. However, these ordinary repair kits are made for those scratches where the base coat isn’t damaged. With light to moderate scratches, only the clear coat is affected, making it repairable. Nevertheless, if your car does have a deep scratch, you can temporarily use the scratch filler that comes with the repair kit until you can get it fixed adequately in an auto repair shop.

Apply Toothpaste
As cliché as it sounds, this simple hack will leave you in surprise. It is known that toothpaste is usually used for removing scratches from DVDs and CDs, and phones, tablets, and laptop screens. Due to its abrasive properties, toothpaste can remove light scratches; like gentler sandpaper, that is used to smoothen certain surfaces. That said, toothpaste can’t smoothen the deep scratch on your car. It can, however, fill the space making the surface flush and the scratch less noticeable.

Cover the Scratch with Duct Tape
If the scratch is long and runs the length of your car, covering it with duct tape might not be the best solution to use. But the main point is covering the scratch with a tape the same color as your car.  Duct tape today comes in various colors. Picking one suitable for your vehicle shouldn’t be that difficult to manage. Although it may not look that pretty from the outside, as a temporary solution until you can get that paint job, it is pretty promising. Make sure to apply the duct tape properly without any crease lines.

Although these hacks may offer instant success, they don’t, however, last long. Get auto insurance, and you can save yourself from spending on expensive paint job after minor car accidents. Protect your wallet and your car now.
