What to Do When the Car Paint is Scratched White?

[DiColton]

You need to purchase a touch-up paint pen set online with the same color code, which will include all the necessary touch-up tools. The process can be completed in about two hours. First, clean the painted surface by wiping it back and forth with a soft towel dipped in toothpaste, then wipe it off with a clean towel.

A few days ago, while reversing my car, I accidentally scraped against a pillar, leaving a large white scratch on the paint. It scared me so much I nearly jumped out of my seat. I quickly went online to find solutions and discovered a few methods to try: For small scratches or slight paint exposure, you can DIY by purchasing a touch-up pen or repair paste. The process is simple—first clean the scratched area, dry it, apply the product evenly, and polish it once it's dry. For deeper scratches that may have damaged the primer, it's essential to visit a professional shop to prevent rust and corrosion. Since I couldn't handle it myself, I went to a repair shop where the technician used a paint repair spray, costing around 200-300 RMB—quite affordable. The key is not to delay; daily driving and exposure to rain can accelerate the damage. Always park carefully and keep a safe distance from obstacles.
