How to Repair Scratches on Car Wraps?
2 Answers
If it's just a simple surface scratch without exposing the vehicle's paint, you can use a hairdryer's hot air to heat the surface for restoration. Purchase a can of spray paint that matches your car's color. After treatment, use a hairdryer to heat and repair the area.
I've dealt with car wrap scratches many times. When doing DIY repairs, first clean the surface thoroughly, then use a hot towel or hairdryer to heat the damaged area. The heat helps soften the wrap material and restore its shape, which is suitable for minor scratches. If the marks aren't deep, apply some specialized repair paste and gently rub it evenly to cover obvious flaws. If you can't handle it, don't force it—seek professional shop services. They can cut out the old film and replace it with a new section. For regular maintenance, it's recommended to wash the car periodically and check the film's condition. Avoid parking near branches or hard objects—prevention is always better than repair, saving both money and time. Remember to wear gloves during the process to avoid oil residue affecting the results.
