What to Do If the Car Paint Gets Scratched a Little?

Solutions for minor car paint scratches: If the car has only suffered slight scratches that are not deep and only the surface paint is affected, the scratched paint can be repaired by waxing. The primary functions of waxing are waterproofing and protecting against acid rain. The protective layer of wax significantly reduces the amount of water droplets adhering to the car body, with an effectiveness ranging from 50% to 90%. Additionally, it provides protection against high temperatures and UV rays. If the damage has reached the base paint layer and some of the paint has peeled off, you can attempt a DIY touch-up. This requires purchasing a touch-up paint pen kit in the matching color code, which includes all necessary tools such as sandpaper, putty, and polishing compound.
