How to Deal with Exposed White Paint from Car Scratches?

[CarsonAnn]

Here are the treatment methods for different levels of exposed white paint from car scratches: 1. Hairline scratches. Polishing or applying a rubbing compound can remove hairline marks. 2. Light scratches. Prepare a tube of toothpaste and apply it to the scratches. Avoid using toothpaste with abrasive ingredients. 3. Moderate to deep scratches. Moderate and deep scratches cannot be repaired by polishing. If the scratch depth does not exceed 5mm, it can be filled with putty and then repainted. If the metal is exposed at the scratch, clean the surface coating of rust, sand it smooth, apply an oxidation neutralizer, spray primer, and repeat the painting, drying, and sanding process to repair. 4. Deep scratches. Severe deformation requires sheet metal repair.
