What are the quick repair methods for vehicle paint scratches?

Quick repair methods for vehicle paint scratches: 1. Toothpaste repair: Toothpaste can only temporarily cover the scratches and will fall off over time without fixing the scratches; 2. Nail polish repair: Nail polish repair is a relatively low-cost method, but it should be noted that some nail polishes are corrosive and can easily damage the paint. Additionally, nail polish repairs do not last long and can cause color differences; 3. Touch-up pen repair: Using a touch-up pen to repair paint scratches is a common method with long-lasting effects and noticeable results; 4. Specialized paint scratch repair agent: Although more expensive, it provides obvious results and the repair is unlikely to fall off.
I've recently dealt with quite a few paint scratches myself, and I find the simplest and quickest method is to first thoroughly clean the scratched area to ensure there's no dirt. Then, for shallow scratches, gently rub with a soft polishing sponge or professional repair paste, wait a few minutes before wiping it clean, and then apply a layer of car wax for protection. I have a few touch-up pens on hand, and the color needs to match, so handling small scratches basically takes about ten minutes and doesn't cost much. I also recommend regularly checking the car paint and avoiding parking in the sun for too long, as this can reduce oxidation and discoloration. If the scratch is too deep and reaches the primer, you'll need to use a spray paint kit, apply several layers, and then polish to prevent rust from spreading. The whole process is quite hassle-free and helps keep the car looking neat.
