How to Deal with Multiple Car Paint Scratches?
2 Answers
To address multiple car paint scratches, the methods are as follows: For minor scratches, nail polish can be used for repair, forming a protective layer over the scratched area to prevent oxidation of the paint. Moderate scratches require the use of a touch-up pen, ensuring the color of the pen matches the car body. Before applying the touch-up, clean the scratched area thoroughly. Once the primer is dry, smooth it with water sandpaper, then apply the touch-up pen for coloring. For severe scratches, it's advisable to visit a professional repair shop for repainting. Methods to prevent car paint scratches include: 1. Promptly remove dust from the car body to minimize the adsorption of dust due to static electricity. 2. Wash the car only after the engine has cooled down, avoiding washing under direct sunlight or high temperatures to prevent the cleaning agent from drying and leaving marks.
I usually enjoy tinkering with my car. When there are many paint scratches, I first clean the surface with soapy water. For minor scratches, I gently rub and polish them with toothpaste or scratch repair wax, which can remove quite a few. For deeper scratches, I use a touch-up pen to dab on the paint and then lightly polish it—this step requires patience for the best results. Tools can be easily bought online, like a repair kit that costs around 30-50 yuan. Remember to park in open spaces and avoid tight spots near walls or tree branches—prevention is much easier than repair. After DIY repairs, the car looks much newer and shinier, and it saves hundreds of yuan on professional services.
