How to Deal with Scratches on the Car Dashboard?

The surface of the LCD screen is covered with a film called a polarizing film. Before starting, it is necessary to clean the scratched area of the screen. Mix white vinegar and distilled water in a 1:1 ratio, then fold a soft cotton cloth and gently wipe the screen with the vinegar solution. Vaseline contains oily components. For applying Vaseline, you don't need a cotton cloth; use your finger to apply it to the scratches, and the application time can be longer.
When I notice scratches on the dashboard, I usually start with an assessment. If it's just superficial light scratches, I'll use a microfiber cloth dipped in toothpaste and gently rub in circular motions for a few minutes. The mild abrasives in toothpaste can often fade minor marks. For more stubborn scratches, I opt for professional dashboard repair paste, applying it in one direction to avoid damaging the screen with excessive force. After treating the scratches, remember to apply a dashboard protective film. This high-transparency film prevents fingerprints and protects against sun exposure. Daily maintenance is simple - just use a soft brush to remove dust. Always avoid touching the dashboard with sharp objects, and during car washes, make sure cleaners don't use rough towels to wipe it.
