Are scratches on your mobile phone screen driving you crazy? Do you want your device to shine without unpleasant aesthetic defects?
There is nothing worse than looking at scratches on the mobile phone screen, for which you shelled out a large sum of money. These small irregularities can reduce the aesthetic appearance of the device and cause frustration in daily use.
Instead of putting up with scratches or opting for an expensive one screen repair, you can use simple things that you often find at home to restore the shine of your mobile phone screen. The solution is at your fingertips!
How to remove scratches from mobile phone screen
1. Toothpaste
Toothpaste is one of the most frequently mentioned methods for removing scratches. However, it is important to choose a non-abrasive toothpaste, as abrasive pastes can cause additional scratches. Apply a small amount of toothpaste to a soft cloth and gently rub over the scratched part of the screen. Rinse the screen and check the results. Note that this method may not be effective for deep scratches.

bicarbonate of soda is known for its cleaning properties. To make a paste, mix equal parts baking soda and water to make a thicker paste. Apply the paste to the scratch on the screen and rub with a clean cloth in a gentle circular motion. Then rinse the screen with clean water.
3. Baby powder
Baby powder can also be used to remove minor scratches. Mix baby powder with water to make a paste. Apply the paste to the scratch and rub it gently with a cloth. Then clean the screen.
4. Vegetable oil
If you have very small scratches, you can try a drop of vegetable oil. Apply a small amount of oil to a soft cloth and gently rub over the scratches. This can temporarily cover scratches, but is not a permanent solution.

There are special scratch removal creams that are designed for use on automotive surfaces, including car navigation system screens. Follow the manufacturer's instructions exactly when using these products. Please note that these products may not be suitable for all screen types and may affect the protective layer on the screen.
Whichever method you choose, it is recommended that you first test on an inconspicuous part of the screen or on an inconspicuous object to ensure effectiveness and possible side effects. In any case, if the scratches are deeper or if none of the home methods bring satisfactory results, contact a professional or the phone manufacturer for advice on repairing or replacing the screen.
