Step 1: Have toothpaste at the ready.
Toothpaste should already be a standard part of your medicine cabinet and morning routine.
Designed to be abrasive, toothpaste can fix a plastic scratch the same way it cleans teeth.
Because it is home-based and shouldn't require additional purchases, toothpaste is the recommended remedy for fixing plastic scratches.
It's important to make sure the toothpaste is an actual paste, as opposed to a gel-based toothpaste.In order for the scratch to work, the toothpaste needs to be abrasive.
Check your toothpaste box if you're unsure about the kind of toothpaste you are using.
A baking soda mixture has the same abrasive qualities as toothpaste.
If you'd rather use baking soda, you can stir up a paste and use it in the same manner. -
Step 2: Dab the toothpaste with an applicator.Because this is a home-based remedy
A soft cloth, paper towel, cotton swab or toothbrush can all suit your purposes in this instance.
When you dab the toothpaste, you should only use a pea-sized amount.
Any more will create an unwieldy mess on your phone. , Once you've got your dab of toothpaste, rub it around in a gentle, circular motion.
Continue doing this until the scratch is barely noticeable.
Due to the fact that the toothpaste is abrasive on its own, you won't need to apply too much pressure.
Keep at the scrubbing until you start to see progress.
Even if the scratch is too significant to be done away with entirely, the abrasion should reduce the scratch.
If your scratch is significant enough, toothpaste won't be enough to fix it.
Even so, it should at least reduce the look of most scratches. , Once the scratch is reduced to your liking, it's a simple process of cleaning off the toothpaste.
Taking a soft, slightly damp cloth and wiping away the excess toothpaste is a good start.From there, you should take a polishing cloth and wipe away any dirt or oils that have otherwise built up on your screen.
By doing this, you'll renew the look of your phone, and hopefully make your phone look better than even before the scratch. -
