How to Deal with a Scratch on a White Car?
1 Answers
If the car body has minor scratches, it's not suitable to claim insurance, and going to a professional auto beauty shop seems unnecessary. In this case, we can perform touch-up painting ourselves. We need to purchase a touch-up paint pen set online that matches the car's color code. The set will include all necessary tools for touch-up painting, such as sandpaper, putty, polishing compound, etc. More related information is as follows: 1. If the scratch reaches the car's primer or even causes deformation, affecting the car's appearance significantly and accelerating rust formation at the damaged area, we can use toothpaste for temporary treatment. Toothpaste can reduce the scratch marks and act as a simple barrier to prevent rust in the short term. However, toothpaste only provides temporary rust prevention, and it's essential to visit a professional auto beauty shop for repair as soon as possible. 2. Waxing is a crucial maintenance tip for white cars. White cars have relatively weaker resistance to corrosion and oxidation compared to cars of other colors. Over time, the white color of the car body may gradually turn yellow. Waxing a white car can effectively prevent paint corrosion and oxidation. Applying wax not only enhances the brightness of the white color but also serves as a protective layer on the paint surface in case of damage!
