| Laptop Screen Scratch Removal |
| Wednesday, 13 September 2006 | |
| I dropped my laptop a while back, and it scratched the screen. I have tried all sorts of ideas to get rid of it. I tried brasso, but that helped a little and made the screen shiny in a place it shouldn't be. I have tried using toothpaste, various glues and sealants (removeable in the case of accidents), and have had little or no luck. I have found a viable solution:Turtle Wax. I am sure that other brands of car wax that you wipe on, let dry, and rub off would work as well. I have done two coats, and the scratch is barely visible (if it werent for that shiny spot from the brasso, you couldn't tell...). I polished the whole screen with the wax. You have to be gentle, and patient. It takes a while to get the wax buffed down to the point of being transparent. A few more coats, and this scratch will be completely filled in. As an added benefit, the wax will keep stuff from sticking as easily to the screen, like dust. Got a scratch? Try this! |
